About our bath re-enamelling in New Mill
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. Typical jobs include an outdated colour you’d like to change and an old resurfacing that’s failing, on acrylic baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, usually one day, with the bath back in use the following day. Prices start from £350. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
Landlord and trade work in New Mill
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.
New Mill questions
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.
Will the new finish last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will the bath be moved?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.
Do you cover New Mill?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to New Mill. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take the best part of a day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s typically ready the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Ask for a price
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

What else we do in New Mill
When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- A bath that is rusted through
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in New Mill
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
Common problems we fix in New Mill
Frequently the bath has just had decades of use, and only the surface is worn. The body of the bath is generally perfectly sound.
Look out for any of the following:
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
Comparing quotes
- What prep work is covered
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What happens if they find more damage
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
