How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Rather than charging by the hour, 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 pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Where you are, by postcode
- What it’s made of, if you know
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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 typically the cheaper route.
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.
FAQs for Brimpton
Will there be fumes?
Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.
Does the bath have to be removed?
Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Generally, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Do you cover the entire of West Berkshire?
We cover the whole UK, including Brimpton and the rest of West Berkshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
How the visit works
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a full day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse off any bath products.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Prices start from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
