How we handle bath re-enamelling in New Sharlston
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, with the bath ready to use the following day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Our repair technicians work on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and people most frequently call us about stains that won’t shift and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What affects the price in New Sharlston
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A picture taken from further back
Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in New Sharlston, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
What we do, step by step
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes the best part of a day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let us know about parking or access
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in New Sharlston
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Does the bath have to be removed?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Common problems we fix in New Sharlston
Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.
People normally call us after spotting one of these:
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
What your quote should include
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What preparation is included
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
