Bath Re-enamelling in Rathmell
Full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing at your home in Rathmell, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper 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, it’s worth having it done properly.
Bath re-enamelling in Rathmell without replacing anything
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. Whether it’s brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and an old resurfacing that’s failing, we can help, on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths alike.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Rathmell and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Rathmell questions
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
How long is the bath unusable?
One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Are there extra charges for Rathmell?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, frequently. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
What happens on the day
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes most of the day, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- 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.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Quotes from your photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Repair dripping taps early
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Why repair rather than replace?
If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Prices start from £350. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why book with us
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- No extra charge for your area
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A bath split right through the body
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Steel that has corroded right through
