Bath re-enamelling in Sparnon Gate without replacing anything
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. We are often asked to fix brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Sparnon Gate?
Older baths often have several problems at once: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Resurfacing sorts them out together.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Wear marks under the taps
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A coating lifting around the plughole
What to look for in a quote
- How to look after the finish
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How the colour is matched
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
Repair or replace: which is better?
When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Nothing else is disturbed. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
What you get with us
- One price list for the entire UK
- A fixed quote before you book
- No need to remove anything
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Landlord and trade work in Sparnon Gate
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
If you manage property in Sparnon Gate, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What a repair cannot fix
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A bath that’s rusted through
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your photos

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Sparnon Gate
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
How it works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a full day.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Related advice
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
