Bath re-enamelling at your home in Summerston
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Common call-outs are for thin, worn enamel in places and several chips and rust patches, across Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and cast iron baths.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Summerston questions
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Normally, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send photos.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Will there be fumes?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Generally one day, with the bath ready the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Summerston. The price depends on:
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Summerston. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed price.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for most of the day from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s usually ready the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Make sure the area is dry
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Avoid suction-cup mats
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
Landlord and trade work in Summerston
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
If you manage property in Summerston, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Repairing versus replacing in Summerston
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why Summerston clients choose us
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- No extra charge for your area
- Work done at your home or business
- Most jobs done in one visit
