How we handle bath re-enamelling in Ramsey
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we do not cut corners on it. If you’re dealing with an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and chips and rust in more than one place, we can help.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

Why repair rather than replace?
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, usually one 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. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Why book with us
- No extra charge for your area
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
Read our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
The process
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a full day. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Ensure the area is dry
- Open a window if you can

What we’re called out for in Ramsey
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is usually as strong as ever.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Stains that will not shift
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
Before you book anyone
- How soon you can use it again
- What prep work is covered
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether a trained technician does the job
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Store bottles off the bath
- Get any chip repaired quickly
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
