Common problems we fix in Sweethaws
The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
Clients usually contact us about:
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Sweethaws
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. If you’re dealing with staining under the taps and around the waste and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, we can help.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Respect the curing time we give you
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a full day in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Open a window if you can
