Bath re-enamelling in Buttermere, done in place
If your bath is sound but looks tired, re-enamelling is normally the most cost-effective option. There’s no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. If you are dealing with staining under the taps and around the waste and an old resurfacing that’s failing, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Wiltshire.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Buttermere
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed quote. There’s no obligation to book.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.
Do you come to Buttermere?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Buttermere and the rest of Wiltshire. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
How long is the bath unusable?
Typically one day, with the bath ready the day after. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Does the bath have to be removed?
Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Buttermere. The price reflects:
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send photos for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the entire bath
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes the best part of a day. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Open a window if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price

Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Buttermere
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- Wear marks under the taps
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off

Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
