Bath re-enamelling in Stoke

About our bath re-enamelling in Stoke

The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the next day. We are often asked to fix wear marks under the taps and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, in basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Before and after: an old basin refinished to bright white

When to call us in Stoke

Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.

Customers typically contact us about:

  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • An old resurfacing that is failing

What your quote should include

  • When it can be used again
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How to look after the finish

How to compare quotes

What a repair can’t fix

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • A metal bath with a through crack

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Stoke

  • Pressed steel baths
  • Acrylic baths
  • Cast iron baths
  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Basins & shower trays

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Never use suction bath mats

Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.

Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.

Repairs by material

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 is the part we put right.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.

Work for landlords and builders

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.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Prices start from £350. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Fixed prices from your photos

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take the best part of a day, tidy-up included.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.
