Bath re-enamelling in Upper Shuckburgh, done in place

We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. We are frequently asked to fix a coloured bath you want in white and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, in pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.

Repairs by material

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.

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 what we repair.

Questions from Upper Shuckburgh

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes. We can do the inside and outside.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Upper Shuckburgh and the rest of Northamptonshire. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Will the bath be moved?

Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

How to compare quotes

What affects the price in Upper Shuckburgh

Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Unusual colours or finishes

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Quotes from your pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the entire bath

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

How to care for the repair

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

If you manage property in Upper Shuckburgh, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

Repair or replace in Upper Shuckburgh?

When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • One visit for most repairs
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • No need to remove anything
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

What a repair cannot fix

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

How it works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow the best part of a day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
