About our bath re-enamelling in Upper Stowe
We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Whether it’s a peeling or bubbling previous coating and chips and rust in more than one place, we can normally put it right.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Repairing versus replacing in Upper Stowe
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
- A picture taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Fix dripping taps quickly
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
What we can’t put right
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A bath split right through the body
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
What we do, step by step
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes most of the day, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice
Landlords, agents and businesses in Upper Stowe
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.

Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Usually, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send pictures.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Do you work in Upper Stowe?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Upper Stowe from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
