Bath re-enamelling in Pilsley without replacing anything
We don’t move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. It generally takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. We work on basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and a bath in a colour that no longer suits.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Derbyshire.

What we do, step by step
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a full day. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Open a window if you can

Advice
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Have chips seen to early
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.
Pilsley: your questions answered
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Typically, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you need to take the bath out?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Pilsley. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the entire bath
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your S45 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Repairing versus replacing in Pilsley
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is generally much cheaper than replacing it, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Pilsley
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pilsley as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
What we’re called out for in Pilsley
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, lifting by the plughole or blistering. We strip what’s failing and start again.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- Thin, worn enamel in places
What to look for in a quote
- Who will actually do the work
- What prep work is covered
- How to look after the finish
- Whether the price covers travel
What a repair can’t fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Holes rusted through the metal
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
