Bath re-enamelling at your home in Pennar
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’re often asked to fix a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and stains that won’t shift, in basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

What we do, step by step
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It usually takes the best part of a day, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s typically ready the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Repairs by material
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 is the part we put right.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pennar as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Pennar questions
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, 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. You are under no obligation.
Can you price it without visiting?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, frequently. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
When to call us in Pennar
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
Contact us if you’ve noticed:
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Wear marks under the taps
What your quote should include
- Who will actually do the work
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- What preparation is included
- Whether they match the colour on site
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Have chips seen to early
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
