Bath re-enamelling in Woonton Ash without replacing anything
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and people most frequently call us about a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What happens on the day
Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes the best part of a day for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Clear the area around the damage
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Common problems we fix in Woonton Ash
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- Lots of chips and rust spots

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Details of any past repairs
Email us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your HR5 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
What we can’t put right
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- A metal bath with a through crack
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Get any chip repaired quickly
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

Should you replace it?
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the whole surface with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

FAQs for Woonton Ash
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Will the new finish last?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will the bath be moved?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Woonton Ash?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
