How we handle bath re-enamelling in Slattocks
The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. It normally takes one visit, and can be used again the day after. Common call-outs are for a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and stains that won’t shift, in Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
What we cannot put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A bath split right through the body
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, so limescale can’t build up.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
What affects the price in Slattocks
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Slattocks. What changes the price is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Slattocks, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
How it works
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take most of the day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s generally ready the following day.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
