Bath re-enamelling in Upton, done in place
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. If you’re dealing with brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, we can help.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a full day. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- 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 several coats of new enamel finish.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s typically ready the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Advice
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
What a repair cannot fix
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Steel that has corroded right through
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.

Previous coatings can fail too, peeling around the waste or bubbling. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Upton
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Will the new finish last?
Care for it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, frequently. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
How long will the bath be out of use?
One day for most baths, ready the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
