Bath re-enamelling in Tottleworth, done in place
If your bath is sound but looks tired, re-enamelling is usually the most cost-effective option. There’s no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths, and common reasons people get in touch are thin, worn enamel in places and staining under the taps and around the waste.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Have chips seen to early
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, so limescale cannot build up.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for most of the day. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Common questions in Tottleworth
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, typically one day, and the bath is usable the day after. Prices start from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Tottleworth. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Tottleworth
Frequently the bath has just had decades of use. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is usually as strong as ever.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Wear marks under the taps
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- Chips and rust in more than one place
Comparing quotes
- How the colour is matched
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Who turns up on the day
- How soon you can use it again
When we’d advise against a repair
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Holes rusted through the metal
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
