How we handle bath re-enamelling in Stanfree
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. We work on Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths, and the jobs we see most are wear marks under the taps and a bath in a colour that no longer suits.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Have chips seen to early
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

What else we do in Stanfree
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Stanfree. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Landlord and trade work in Stanfree
For anyone letting property in or around Stanfree, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Stanfree
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used. The body of the bath is usually perfectly sound.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
Questions to ask before you book
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How changes to the job are handled
- Who will actually do the work
How it works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a full day, tidy-up included.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Getting a price
For a price in Stanfree, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Related advice
What a repair can’t fix
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Steel that has corroded right through
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
Repairing versus replacing in Stanfree
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the entire room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing generally wins. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
