How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

You don’t 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.

Bath re-enamelling in Berwick without replacing anything

Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. Common call-outs are for several chips and rust patches and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, across acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

How to care for the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners

Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

What we are called out for in Berwick

Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.

The things clients typically mention when they call are:

  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • When it can be used again
  • How to care for the finish
  • How the colour is matched

Questions from Berwick

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is there a smell?

There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.

Will the new finish last?

Look after it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

Usually, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send pictures.

Do you cover the whole of East Sussex?

We cover the entire UK, including Berwick and the rest of East Sussex. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Repair or replace: which is better?

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 entire room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

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 process

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes most of the day, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Advice

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Berwick use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in East Sussex and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
