Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
About our bath re-enamelling in Newton
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Common call-outs are for an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and a coloured bath you want in white, across pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Repair dripping taps early
- Never use suction bath mats
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

What affects the price in Newton
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
- How easy the damage is to reach
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.
How to get a fixed price
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
FAQs for Newton
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
How long does re-enamelling last?
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.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
What we are called out for in Newton
Enamel does not fail overnight. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, usually first under the taps and around the waste.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- Several chips and rust patches
- Stains that won’t shift
What your quote should include
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a full day from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s typically ready the next day.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the area is dry
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
