How we handle bath re-enamelling in Riber
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. We work on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays, and people most frequently call us about chips and rust in more than one place and stains that won’t shift.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.

FAQs for Riber
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
What happens next?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
What areas do you cover?
The whole UK, including all of Derbyshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Never use suction bath mats
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Honest limits
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- A bath split right through the body
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Prices and what affects them

- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
