How we handle bath re-enamelling in New Swannington
We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Typical jobs include a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and lots of chips and rust spots, across acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a full day, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
What a repair cannot fix
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A bath split right through the body
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in New Swannington

Landlords, agents and businesses in New Swannington
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Questions from New Swannington
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Do you cover New Swannington?
We do. Technicians travel to New Swannington from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Common problems we fix in New Swannington
Older baths often have several problems at once: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Stains that won’t shift
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
Questions to ask before you book
- Aftercare advice
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- How long it needs to cure
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Repair dripping taps early
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Why repair rather than replace?
If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
