How the visit works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes the best part of a day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- 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.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Ensure the area is dry
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Have chips seen to early
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Other services in Stoke
For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What bath re-enamelling costs

- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Stoke?
Previous coatings can fail too, peeling around the waste or bubbling. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Several chips and rust patches
What your quote should include
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- What preparation is included
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Stoke questions
Will there be fumes?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, often. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
