Bath re-enamelling at your home in Bogston
If your bath is sound but looks tired, re-enamelling is typically the most cost-effective option. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Typical jobs include enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, in Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and acrylic baths.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Have chips seen to early
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

Bogston: your questions answered
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Does someone need to be in?

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, often. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Will the new finish last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
When a repair is not the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A metal bath with a through crack
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths

Advice
Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A picture taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
