About our bath re-enamelling in Staining

Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. We work on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and people most frequently call us about a coloured bath you want in white and an old resurfacing that’s failing.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

What your bath is made of matters

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.

Repairing versus replacing in Staining

If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Nothing else is disturbed. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Work done at your home or business

How to look after the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Have chips seen to early

Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

FAQs for Staining

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Does re-enamelling smell?

There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • A bath that is rusted through
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Staining

  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Acrylic baths
  • Cast iron baths

Common problems we fix in Staining

Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • A roll-top that is seen better days
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off

What your quote should include

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How the colour is matched
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What aftercare is recommended

10 questions to ask before you book

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. There is no area surcharge for Staining. The price reflects:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a full day.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
