Bath re-enamelling at your home in Bilsham
We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Common call-outs are for thin, worn enamel in places and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, in Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
How the visit works
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a full day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- 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.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Ensure the area is dry
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice
Repairs by material
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
What a repair cannot fix
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Holes rusted through the metal
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Common questions in Bilsham
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your BN18 postcode.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
How long is the bath unusable?
Usually a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
