- Several chips and rust patches
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it

Bath re-enamelling in Stanway, done in place
Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without a refit. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. If you’re dealing with a coating lifting around the plughole and a roll-top that’s seen better days, we can generally put it right, on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths alike.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What affects the price in Stanway
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Quotes from your photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One picture of the whole bath
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
How the visit works
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a full day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- The bath is left to cure and can generally be used the day after.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Different materials, different repairs
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
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

Should you replace it?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is generally much cheaper than replacing it, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s also far quicker. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
What you get with us
- Work done at your home or business
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

What we can’t put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
Landlord and trade work in Stanway
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Stanway use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Stanway: your questions answered
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside.
How long does re-enamelling take?
One day for most baths, ready the following day. We will confirm timings when we quote.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Will there be fumes?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your CO3 postcode.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
