Bath re-enamelling in Toprow

When to call us in Toprow

Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, with nothing wrong except the surface. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is generally as strong as ever.

Customers typically contact us about:

  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • A coloured bath you want in white

Questions to ask before booking

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Aftercare advice

How to compare quotes

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Toprow

Resurfacing renews the entire surface of the bath without taking anything out. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people contact us are a bath in a colour that no longer suits and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Acrylic baths
  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Cast iron baths

Repairs by material

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

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.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Toprow. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the entire bath

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Toprow questions

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Toprow included. Travel is included in the price.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Is there a smell?

Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Repair dripping taps early

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes most of the day in most cases. The room is left tidy.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can generally be used the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and usually a day, with the bath back in use the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
