Bath re-enamelling at your home in Tipton
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. If you’re dealing with wear marks under the taps and staining under the taps and around the waste, we can help, on Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths alike.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

What else we do in Tipton
When a repair is not the answer
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- A bath that’s rusted through
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
How it works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes most of the day. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Related advice
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Tipton
Are there extra charges for Tipton?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do you cover Tipton?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Tipton from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Do you need to take the bath out?
Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Landlord and trade work in Tipton
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. There is no charge for travel to Tipton. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A picture taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
Most customers in Tipton get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
