Typical jobs include wear marks under the taps and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, across basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths.

What we can’t put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

Should you replace it?
A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing renews the entire surface without moving it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Stubton questions
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
How long does re-enamelling last?
Look after it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price. You are under no obligation.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
When to call us in Stubton
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
Most people contact us when they notice something like this:
- Several chips and rust patches
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
Questions to ask before you book
- What prep work is covered
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How soon you can use it again
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a full day, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the day after.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Get any chip repaired quickly
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Stubton. What changes the price is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
