About our bath re-enamelling in Unstone
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. We regularly repair acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and people most frequently call us about an outdated colour you’d like to change and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Unstone and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Unstone, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- One picture of the entire bath
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
For a price in Unstone, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
How the visit works
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take the best part of a day. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- 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 until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Questions from Unstone
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Typically one day, with the bath ready the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
