Bath re-enamelling in Orchard Park, done in place
We don’t move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It usually takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Common call-outs are for a roll-top that’s seen better days and thin, worn enamel in places, in acrylic baths, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
What we are called out for in Orchard Park
Often the bath has just had decades of use, with nothing wrong except the surface. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is generally as strong as ever.
Common reasons people in Orchard Park contact us are:
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Several chips and rust patches
Before you book anyone
- How the room is protected while they work
- What aftercare is recommended
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- A bath that is rusted through
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- A bath split right through the body
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The material
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the entire bath
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Orchard Park
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Orchard Park: your questions answered
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Will the new finish last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
