Bath Re-enamelling for Whitacre Heath homes
We travel to Whitacre Heath for full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- Stains that will not shift
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Whitacre Heath
The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It typically takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. We work on Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and cast iron baths, and the jobs we see most are worn patches where water runs and sits and a roll-top that’s seen better days.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Whitacre Heath and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes most of the day, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- Several chips and rust patches
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
Comparing quotes
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed price
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Common questions in Whitacre Heath
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
How long is the bath unusable?
Typically one day, with the bath ready the next day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.
Can you price it without visiting?
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, often. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Do you come to Whitacre Heath?
We do. We send a technician to Whitacre Heath for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Why repair rather than replace?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and normally one day, with the bath ready the next day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Have chips seen to early
- Never use suction bath mats
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
