Bath re-enamelling in Thornton Steward without replacing anything
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, with the bath ready to use the following day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. Typical jobs include wear marks under the taps and a coating lifting around the plughole, on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. 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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
What we are called out for in Thornton Steward
Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, usually first under the taps and around the waste.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Several chips and rust patches
- A roll-top that is seen better days

What we can’t put right
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Steel that has corroded right through
- A bath split right through the body

Thornton Steward questions
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Is there a smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Thornton Steward?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Fix dripping taps quickly
Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse off any bath products.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take most of the day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- 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 next day.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
