How we handle bath re-enamelling in Yockleton
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Whether it’s a roll-top that’s seen better days and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, we can help.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Have chips seen to early
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse off any bath products.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
What we can’t put right
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- A bath that is rusted through
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays

- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Yockleton
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Do you cover Yockleton?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Yockleton. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. Inside and out.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Yockleton
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
The things clients normally mention when they call are:
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Stains that will not shift
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
