Bath re-enamelling at your home in Whittington
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Whether it’s worn patches where water runs and sits and lots of chips and rust spots, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Respect the curing time we give you
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes most of the day. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice
Repair or replace in Whittington?
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, typically one day, and the bath is usable the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- Work done at your home or business
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- We leave the room as we found it

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Whittington

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Generally, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
