Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Banknock. What changes the price is:
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Send pictures for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Banknock
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. We are frequently asked to fix an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and a coating lifting around the plughole, on Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Prices start from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.

What we’re called out for in Banknock
Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- Wear marks under the taps
Questions to ask before booking
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
How it works
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes the best part of a day.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
