About our bath re-enamelling in Woodhouse Down
We do not move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. Most baths are done in one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Our technicians work on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people contact us are an old resurfacing that’s failing and several chips and rust patches.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Advice
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Woodhouse Down?
The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
Common reasons people in Woodhouse Down contact us are:
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- Thin, worn enamel in places
What your quote should include
- What happens if they find more damage
- How the colour is matched
- What aftercare is recommended
- What protection goes down before work starts
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Get any chip repaired quickly
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Woodhouse Down
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Repair or replace: which is better?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is generally much cheaper than replacing it, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good.
