Bath re-enamelling in Potternewton without replacing anything
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. We are often asked to fix an outdated colour you’d like to change and chips and rust in more than one place, across cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
Repairing versus replacing in Potternewton
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and normally a day, and the bath is usable the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Why us?
- One visit for most repairs
- Work done at your home or business
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper 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:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- A bath split right through the body
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Respect the curing time we give you
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Potternewton questions
Are there extra charges for Potternewton?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow most of the day from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
