Bath re-enamelling across North Down: what to expect
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. We are often asked to fix several chips and rust patches and a roll-top that’s seen better days, in basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops.
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes most of the day.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- 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.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the following day.
Cost
Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Common problems we fix in North Down
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
Customers usually contact us about:
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A bath split right through the body
- Steel that has corroded right through
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the whole bath
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
Repairing versus replacing
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it.
What your quote should include
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How soon you can use it again
North Down questions
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
