How we handle bath re-enamelling in Weekley
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, and we take our time over it. Typical jobs include enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and lots of chips and rust spots, in acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and generally one day, with the bath ready the next day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Weekley?
Frequently the bath has just had decades of use, with nothing wrong except the surface. The body of the bath is normally perfectly sound.
Clients usually contact us about:
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- Stains that will not shift
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
What your quote should include
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- When it can be used again
- How the colour is matched
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
What we can’t put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
- Holes rusted through the metal
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops

Weekley: your questions answered
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Northamptonshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a full day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- 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 usually ready the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Have chips seen to early
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
What affects the price in Weekley
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Weekley. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
