Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in Storrs, Sheffield
Bath re-enamelling across Storrs and nearby, normally in one visit and guaranteed for a year.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- Lots of chips and rust spots
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- Avoid suction-cup mats
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Bath re-enamelling in Storrs without replacing anything
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. We are frequently asked to fix brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and a coloured bath you want in white, on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

FAQs for Storrs
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 quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Do you come to Storrs?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Storrs. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Storrs?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
Should you replace it?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the entire surface with the bath left where it is. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Thin, worn enamel in places

What we can’t put right
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A bath that is rusted through
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
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, then guarantee it for a year.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Storrs. The price comes down to:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Storrs. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
How it works
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take the best part of a day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
