About our bath re-enamelling in Rickford
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. If you are dealing with stains that won’t shift and a coloured bath you want in white, we can help, on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays alike.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes most of the day in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Have a window or extractor fan available

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Advice
Nearby places to Rickford
What else we do in Rickford
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
- How many items we do on one visit
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- What it’s made of, if you know
Most clients in Rickford get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What a repair can’t fix
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- A bath split right through the body
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in Rickford
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Have chips seen to early
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.
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.
Repairing versus replacing in Rickford
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, normally one day, with the bath back in use the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Rickford. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why us?
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- We leave the room as we found it
- No need to remove anything
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
