Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
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.
About our bath re-enamelling in Saints
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, and we take our time over it. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are a peeling or bubbling previous coating and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, so limescale can’t build up.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Saints?
Previous coatings can fail too, lifting by the plughole or blistering. We strip what’s failing and start again.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- Several chips and rust patches

For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Saints, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
Should you replace it?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes the best part of a 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.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
