Bath re-enamelling at your home in Tindale Crescent
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. Common call-outs are for wear marks under the taps and chips and rust in more than one place, on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Tindale Crescent: your questions answered
How long is the bath unusable?
Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
Does re-enamelling smell?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Do you come to Tindale Crescent?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Tindale Crescent. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
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.
What affects the price in Tindale Crescent
Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Tindale Crescent. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
- A picture taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Tindale Crescent?
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A coating lifting around the plughole
What to look for in a quote
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How the colour is matched

Landlord and trade work in Tindale Crescent
If you manage property in Tindale Crescent, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Advice
When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- A bath split right through the body
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
