Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Aston on Clun. The price reflects:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Aston on Clun questions
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Aston on Clun?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you cover the whole of Shropshire?
Everywhere in the UK, Aston on Clun included. Travel is included in the price.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Will there be fumes?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Normally one day, with the bath ready the next day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Have chips seen to early
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Repair dripping taps early
Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Repair or replace: which is better?
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s also far quicker. Prices start from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
