Bath re-enamelling in Shutta without replacing anything
We do not move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the day after. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and cast iron baths, and the jobs we see most are a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and chips and rust in more than one place.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A bath split right through the body
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

FAQs for Shutta
Will the new finish last?
Look after it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Are there extra charges for Shutta?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Will there be fumes?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Shutta. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes most of the day. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
