Bath re-enamelling at your home in Northampton

Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. Common call-outs are for a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and lots of chips and rust spots, on Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Take a look at our pricing or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

What we are called out for in Northampton

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

People normally call us when they notice something like this:

  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • Several chips and rust patches
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring

What to look for in a quote

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How long it needs to cure
  • How the colour is matched

Our hiring checklist

What a repair can’t fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it

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

Materials we repair

  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Acrylic baths
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Cast iron baths

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Northampton

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do you cover the entire of Worcestershire?

The entire UK, including all of Worcestershire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Northampton?

Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes, frequently. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired

Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a full day for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can generally be used the next day.
