About our bath re-enamelling in Uppermill
We do not move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It generally takes one visit, and can be used again the day after. Our repair technicians work on acrylic baths, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays, and people most often call us about lots of chips and rust spots and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A metal bath with a through crack
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths

Other services in Uppermill
Landlord and trade work in Uppermill
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures 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.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Uppermill?
Older baths often have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.
Look out for these signs:
- Stains that won’t shift
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How changes to the job are handled
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether the price covers travel
How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed quote.
Questions from Uppermill
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
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.
Will there be fumes?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.
Do you cover Uppermill?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Uppermill. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will the bath be moved?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
