Can I fix it myself?
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.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Bainsford
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, re-enamelling is usually the most cost-effective option. There is no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. Whether it’s a coloured bath you want in white and a roll-top that’s seen better days, we can help, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

Questions from Bainsford
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.
Will the new finish last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Why repair rather than replace?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What affects the price in Bainsford
Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- One picture of the whole bath
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Repairs by material
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.
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.
What happens on the day
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes most of the day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- 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.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
