About our bath re-enamelling in Newland
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we don’t cut corners on it. Whether it’s a roll-top that’s seen better days and an outdated colour you’d like to change, we can help, on pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths alike.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What a repair can’t fix
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
Repair or replace: which is better?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Get any chip repaired quickly
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Newland
Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths dull the surface, usually first under the taps and around the waste.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Several chips and rust patches
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Newland
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, frequently. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
Do you come to Newland?
We do. We send a technician to Newland for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What else we do in Newland
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Work for landlords and builders
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.
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.
What happens on the day
When we visit, 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 let you know when you can use it again.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Ask for a price
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
