Bath re-enamelling in Winkburn without replacing anything
We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. We regularly repair acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops, and people most frequently call us about a peeling or bubbling previous coating and wear marks under the taps.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Winkburn: your questions answered
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Does re-enamelling smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Nottinghamshire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Does the bath have to be removed?
Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

What affects the price in Winkburn
Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
How to get a fixed price
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
The process
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes most of the day, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the next day.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear the area around the damage
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Related advice
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, typically one day, and the bath is usable the day after. Prices start from £350. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What we are called out for in Winkburn
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.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
