Bath re-enamelling in Newbold, done in place
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Typical jobs include stains that won’t shift and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Newbold use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Repair dripping taps early
- Avoid suction-cup mats
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, so limescale can’t build up.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
Newbold: your questions answered
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
Do you come to Newbold?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Newbold. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How long does re-enamelling last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Steel that has corroded right through
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
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 make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What we do, step by step
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a full day.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What we are called out for in Newbold
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- Stains that won’t shift
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating

Should you replace it?
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s much quicker too. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good.
