Bath re-enamelling in Standlake, done in place
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. We regularly repair cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths, and people most frequently call us about a coloured bath you want in white and a roll-top that’s seen better days.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

What we’re called out for in Standlake
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
Questions to ask before booking
- How the room is protected while they work
- What prep work is covered
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A metal bath with a through crack
- A bath that is rusted through
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
Repair or replace in Standlake?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the entire surface without moving it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Why Standlake customers choose us
- Same prices wherever you are
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Never use suction bath mats
- Store bottles off the bath
Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Standlake use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Questions from Standlake
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Standlake?
Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
What we do, step by step
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a full day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
