Bath re-enamelling at your home in Shatterling
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. We work on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths, and people most often call us about stains that won’t shift and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
For anyone letting property in or around Shatterling, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes a full day, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Repair dripping taps early
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Common problems we fix in Shatterling
Previous coatings can fail too, peeling around the waste or bubbling. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.
Most people contact us after spotting one of these:
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Several chips and rust patches
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
Questions to ask before booking
- What protection goes down before work starts
- When it can be used again
- Aftercare advice
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
You do not need a survey visit. 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.
