Bath re-enamelling in Pitsford without replacing anything

We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. We work on Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths, and common reasons people contact us are enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Pitsford as everywhere else we work.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Pitsford questions

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Will there be fumes?

Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Do you cover the entire of Northamptonshire?

The whole UK, including all of Northamptonshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Pitsford. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

What your bath is made of matters

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

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 what we repair.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Holes rusted through the metal

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Basins & shower trays
  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Cast iron baths
  • Acrylic baths

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired

Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

Repairing versus replacing in Pitsford

Replacing a bath generally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and typically one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Landlord and trade work in Pitsford

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pitsford use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

How it works

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow most of the day. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know about parking or access

How to get a price

Most clients in Pitsford get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
