Bath re-enamelling in Saltley, done in place
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, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and cast iron baths, and people most often call us about several chips and rust patches and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Saltley
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, lifting by the plughole or blistering. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- Several chips and rust patches
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- A roll-top that is seen better days
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How to look after the finish
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How the room is protected while they work
Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Store bottles off the bath
- Have chips seen to early
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Never use suction bath mats
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, so limescale can’t build up.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
When a repair isn’t the answer
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A bath that is rusted through
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- A bath split right through the body

What we do, step by step
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes most of the day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- The bath is left to cure and can generally be used the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Repair or replace: which is better?
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s also far quicker. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
