Bath re-enamelling at your home in Newland
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, and you can use the bath the day after. Nothing is disconnected or removed. Typical jobs include an old resurfacing that’s failing and thin, worn enamel in places, across cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Questions from Newland
Does someone need to be in?

How long does re-enamelling take?
Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
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.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Never use suction bath mats
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
What we do, step by step
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a full day, including clearing up.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know about parking or access
- Make sure the area is dry
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

What affects the price in Newland
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Newland. What changes the price is:
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
When we’d advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
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.

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath normally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Newland. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
