Should you replace it?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Bedgrove. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Common questions in Bedgrove
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
How long does re-enamelling take?
One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.
Do you cover Bedgrove?
We do. We send a technician to Bedgrove for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Have chips seen to early
- Fix dripping taps quickly
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
When to call us in Bedgrove
Frequently the bath has just had decades of use, with nothing wrong except the surface. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is usually as strong as ever.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Wear marks under the taps
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- Chips and rust in more than one place
Comparing quotes
- How the colour is matched
- What preparation is included
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- How long it needs to cure
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
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.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
For a price in Bedgrove, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.
Before we arrive

- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
