Bath re-enamelling in Bearpark without replacing anything
Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without taking anything out. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. If you’re dealing with worn patches where water runs and sits and an outdated colour you’d like to change, we can generally put it right, on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths alike.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

The process
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes the best part of a day, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- 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.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let us know which floor the room is on

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Store bottles off the bath
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
Should I try a DIY kit 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, it’s worth having it done properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Repairs by material
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.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Bearpark?
By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Worn patches where water runs and sits

Bearpark questions
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Will the new finish last?
Care for it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Bearpark.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
