Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Bath re-enamelling in Northampton, done in place
We do not move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It generally takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Whether it’s brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, we can help.

What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes most of the day.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Northampton use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and normally a day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
What you get with us
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- Colour-matched on site
- We leave the room as we found it
- One visit for most repairs

What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes

Northampton questions
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Does re-enamelling smell?
A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Common problems we fix in Northampton
By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Resurfacing sorts them out together.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Wear marks under the taps
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Chips and rust in more than one place
What to look for in a quote
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What preparation is included
- How the room is protected while they work
