Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Caterham. The price reflects:
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
How to get a fixed price
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Caterham
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Typical jobs include several chips and rust patches and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, on pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

The process
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes most of the day, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- 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.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Store bottles off the bath
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.

What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Other services in Caterham
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Caterham questions
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Is there a smell?
A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing normally wins. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Caterham. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
