Bath re-enamelling at your home in Newfield
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. We’re often asked to fix brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and an old resurfacing that’s failing, across pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Store bottles off the bath
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
When we would advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Holes rusted through the metal
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Newfield

What affects the price in Newfield

- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
- What it’s made of, if you know
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Advice
Landlord and trade work in Newfield
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Newfield as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath typically involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the next day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, 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.
