Bath re-enamelling in Owthorpe without replacing anything
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths, and people most frequently call us about an old resurfacing that’s failing and a bath in a colour that no longer suits.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Owthorpe as everywhere else we work.

How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes most of the day, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Common questions in Owthorpe
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Nottinghamshire.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. 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 price
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Where you are, by postcode
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A photo taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Get any chip repaired quickly
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Owthorpe as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Why repair rather than replace?

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
