Bath re-enamelling in Porthill without replacing anything
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, and you can use the bath the next day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. Typical jobs include worn patches where water runs and sits and staining under the taps and around the waste, in acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

The process
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a full day, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s typically ready the following day.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Porthill?
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
What to look for in a quote
- Who turns up on the day

Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
Repairing versus replacing in Porthill
A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, usually one day, with the bath back in use the next day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- A bath split right through the body
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Porthill: your questions answered
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Generally one day, with the bath ready the day after. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
What areas do you cover?
The whole UK, including all of Stoke-on-Trent. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
