Bath re-enamelling in Staple without replacing anything
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. Our technicians work on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and cast iron baths, and common reasons people contact us are lots of chips and rust spots and stains that won’t shift.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Repairing versus replacing in Staple
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Why Staple customers choose us
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- A fixed quote before you book

Staple: your questions answered
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Usually a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Does re-enamelling smell?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Staple?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Staple, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Letting agents frequently send us photos 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.

How the visit works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a full day. The room is left 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.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Make sure the area is dry
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Advice
Also in Staple
What we’re called out for in Staple
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, lifting by the plughole or blistering. We strip what’s failing and start again.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- Thin, worn enamel in places
What your quote should include
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How changes to the job are handled
- What aftercare is recommended
- How the room is protected while they work
When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Staple. The price comes down to:
- The type of damage
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One picture of the entire bath
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, a professional repair is worth it.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
