Bath re-enamelling in Starston, done in place
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. Typical jobs include a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, on basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.

When we would advise against a repair
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- A bath that is rusted through
- A metal bath with a through crack
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Respect the curing time we give you
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Send photos for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Most clients in Starston get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Questions from Starston
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. Inside and out.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send photos.
Also in Starston
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. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
