Bath re-enamelling in Sutton Howgrave without replacing anything
We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. We work on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are a roll-top that’s seen better days and lots of chips and rust spots.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Sutton Howgrave and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
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.
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Have chips seen to early
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Respect the curing time we give you
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
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 play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
What happens on the day
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take most of the day. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

Common questions in Sutton Howgrave
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, and that includes Sutton Howgrave. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, often. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
