Bath re-enamelling at your home in Red Row
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. Our repair technicians work on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are a peeling or bubbling previous coating and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow most of the day, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- 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 next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price
For a price in Red Row, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Advice
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Red Row
Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, typically first under the taps and around the waste.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Thin, worn enamel in places
What your quote should include
- What aftercare is recommended
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A metal bath with a through crack
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Repairing versus replacing in Red Row
Replacing a bath typically involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and usually one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

FAQs for Red Row
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
Care for it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Red Row included. Travel is included in the price.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Most baths are done in a day, ready the day after. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
