Bath re-enamelling in Pilsley, done in place
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 work on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are chips and rust in more than one place and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Pilsley and across Derbyshire.

What we do, step by step

- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Open a window if you can
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.
Pilsley: your questions answered
How long does re-enamelling last?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
What happens after I send photos?

Are there extra charges for Pilsley?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
