Bath Re-enamelling in Tin Town
Bath re-enamelling for Tin Town, without a refit. Send us photos for a fixed price, then book a visit.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Bath re-enamelling in Tin Town, done in place
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. If you are dealing with an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, we can help, on pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and acrylic baths alike.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a full day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
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’s the part we put right.
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Repairing versus replacing in Tin Town
A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and usually a day, and the bath is usable the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- The material, if you know it
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

Questions from Tin Town
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is there a smell?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How long is the bath unusable?
Normally one day, with the bath ready the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Have chips seen to early
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
