How we handle bath re-enamelling in Satmar
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, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. Common call-outs are for a roll-top that’s seen better days and an outdated colour you’d like to change, in basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Have chips seen to early
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Questions from Satmar
Do you need to take the bath out?
No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
What we can’t put right
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A bath split right through the body
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

For a price in Satmar, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
