Full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing in Bendish, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping

Should you replace it?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the whole room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Prices start from £350. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

Bendish questions
How long is the bath unusable?
Generally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Bendish. The price reflects:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Something in shot to show the size
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A bath that is rusted through
- A metal bath with a through crack
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Common problems we fix in Bendish
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A coloured bath you want in white
Questions to ask before you book
- What aftercare is recommended
- How your room will be protected
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether a trained technician does the job
The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow the best part of a day, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep a parking space free if you can
