About our bath re-enamelling in Osbaston
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. We regularly repair acrylic baths, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths, and the jobs we see most are stains that won’t shift and an old resurfacing that’s failing.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Osbaston as everywhere else we work.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Osbaston
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Do you work in Osbaston?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Osbaston from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Typically one day, with the bath ready the day after. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote, generally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
What we are called out for in Osbaston
Older baths often have several problems at once: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Wear marks under the taps
- Stains that won’t shift
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
Comparing quotes
- Aftercare advice
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether the price covers travel
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Have chips seen to early
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Never use suction bath mats
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Landlord and trade work in Osbaston
If you manage property in Osbaston, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
The process
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a full day, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s typically ready the following day.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
