Bath re-enamelling at your home in Slawston
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, and we take our time over it. We are frequently asked to fix several chips and rust patches and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, across acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What we’re called out for in Slawston
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, peeling around the waste or bubbling. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.
Look out for these signs:
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How long it needs to cure
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Have chips seen to early
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Should you replace it?
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing renews the whole surface with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

- Work done at your home or business
- Honest advice, even when it means no job

Questions from Slawston
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Slawston. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you cover the entire of Northamptonshire?

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Generally, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Usually a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Slawston as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a full day. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- 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 usually ready the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
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.
Honest limits
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A bath that’s rusted through

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic

Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
