- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- 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 until the following day.

Advice
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Bulmer
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we do not cut corners on it. Typical jobs include a peeling or bubbling previous coating and a coloured bath you want in white, across Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Bulmer
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Bulmer included. Travel is included in the price.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you come to Bulmer?
We do. We send a technician to Bulmer for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
Will the bath be moved?
No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Landlord and trade work in Bulmer
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Repair or replace in Bulmer?
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Prices start from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why us?
- Everything repaired in place
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- No extra charge for your area
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK

What we cannot put right
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- A bath split right through the body
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we work on in Bulmer
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Never use suction bath mats
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
