Do you need bath re-enamelling in Carlecotes?
Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A coloured bath you want in white
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating

How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Never use suction bath mats
Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse off any bath products.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Repairing versus replacing in Carlecotes
A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and generally one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

What affects the price in Carlecotes
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Common questions in Carlecotes
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 do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Will the new finish last?
Care for it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Carlecotes?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your S36 postcode.
How long will the bath be out of use?
One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.
Does re-enamelling smell?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
The process
You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take most of the day, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
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 the part we put right.
