Bath re-enamelling in Yoxall, done in place

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. We work on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are a coating lifting around the plughole and stains that won’t shift.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a full day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear the area around the damage

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface

The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.

Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How much damage there is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Send photos for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • One picture of the whole bath
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

Repairing versus replacing in Yoxall

Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What you get with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Yoxall questions

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes, frequently. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

How long does re-enamelling last?

Look after it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote. There’s no obligation to book.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

What a repair cannot fix

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A bath split right through the body

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What we work on

  • Basins & shower trays
  • Acrylic baths
  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Cast iron baths

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Yoxall?

Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, normally first under the taps and around the waste.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
  • A roll-top that’s seen better days
  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • A coloured bath you want in white

Our hiring checklist

Different materials, different repairs

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
