Bath re-enamelling at your home in Budby
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. Common call-outs are for a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, across acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

What we do, step by step
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a full day. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.
Related advice
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Avoid suction-cup mats
Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Repairing versus replacing in Budby
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. Prices start from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
What you get with us
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A picture taken from further back
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays

Common questions in Budby
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Do you cover Budby?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Budby. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will the bath be moved?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
