About our bath re-enamelling in Shevington
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Common call-outs are for wear marks under the taps and staining under the taps and around the waste, across basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Shevington and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes the best part of a day. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Related advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the whole surface with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Why us?
- No need to remove anything
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- Rooms protected and left tidy

Questions from Shevington
How long does re-enamelling last?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote, usually with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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.
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Store bottles off the bath
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
