Bath Re-enamelling in Waterfall
Bath re-enamelling across Waterfall and nearby, typically in one visit.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
What a repair can’t fix
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A metal bath with a through crack
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
Bath re-enamelling in Waterfall without replacing anything
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths, and the jobs we see most are enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Staffordshire.

Should you replace it?
There are times replacing is better: 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. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Landlord and trade work in Waterfall
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Waterfall use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Waterfall?
Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, typically first under the taps and around the waste.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
What to look for in a quote

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- One picture of the entire bath
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job without visiting.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow the best part of a day.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know which floor the room is on
How to get a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Advice
Waterfall: your questions answered
How long will the bath be out of use?

What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Will the bath be moved?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
