How we handle bath re-enamelling in Stagsden
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we do not cut corners on it. Common call-outs are for stains that won’t shift and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, across basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Can I fix it myself?
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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
What we are called out for in Stagsden
Hard water speeds up the wear, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Stagsden. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:
- A picture taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Something in shot to show the size
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can price the job.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Never use suction bath mats
- Store bottles off the bath
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.
What a repair cannot fix
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Steel that has corroded right through
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on

- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s typically ready the following day.
Before we arrive

Resurfacing renews the whole surface with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
