Bath Re-enamelling in Stanford Dingley

- Resurfacing from £350

- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Stanford Dingley
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. If you are dealing with enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and an old resurfacing that’s failing, we can typically put it right, on cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Questions from Stanford Dingley
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you cover Stanford Dingley?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Stanford Dingley for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
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.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, often. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Stanford Dingley
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Have chips seen to early
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, so limescale can’t build up.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Common problems we fix in Stanford Dingley
Older baths often have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
Questions to ask before booking
- If travel is included in the price
- When it can be used again

- What aftercare is recommended

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Stanford Dingley. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
- A photo taken from further back
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
