How we handle bath re-enamelling in Staincross
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. We are often asked to fix a coating lifting around the plughole and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and cast iron baths.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Staincross and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Common questions in Staincross
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, often. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
How long is the bath unusable?
Typically one day, with the bath ready the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
When to call us in Staincross
Older baths frequently have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.
Look out for these signs:
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A coloured bath you want in white
Questions to ask before booking
- What preparation is included
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What protection goes down before work starts
What we cannot put right
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- A bath that is rusted through
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Work for landlords and builders
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.
If you manage property in Staincross, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
