Bath re-enamelling at your home in Ruston
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, and you can use the bath the day after. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Common call-outs are for a roll-top that’s seen better days and staining under the taps and around the waste, in Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and acrylic baths.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Repairing versus replacing in Ruston
There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing usually wins. Prices start from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How it works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a full day.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Open a window if you can
Ask for a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

What we’re called out for in Ruston
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Stains that won’t shift
- Worn patches where water runs and sits

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ruston
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
What affects the price in Ruston
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
