How we handle bath re-enamelling in Upper Battlefield

We’re frequently asked to fix chips and rust in more than one place and a coating lifting around the plughole, in basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths.

Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- Get any chip repaired quickly
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a full day. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Upper Battlefield as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Common questions in Upper Battlefield
Do you work in Upper Battlefield?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Upper Battlefield for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Do you need to take the bath out?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, frequently. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
When to call us in Upper Battlefield
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, with nothing wrong except the surface. The body of the bath is normally perfectly sound.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- 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 your quote should include
- If travel is included in the price
- How the room is protected while they work
- How to look after the finish
- Whether they match the colour on site
Repair or replace: which is better?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why book with us
- One price list for the entire UK
- A fixed quote before booking
- Work done at your home or business
- Colour mixed on the day to match
