Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Spitewinter. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
What you get with us
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- A fixed quote before you book
- Everything repaired in place
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Bath re-enamelling in Spitewinter without replacing anything
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Common call-outs are for staining under the taps and around the waste and worn patches where water runs and sits, in acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Spitewinter questions
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Will the new finish last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. Inside and out.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

- Lots of chips and rust spots

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Never use suction bath mats
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.
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.
