How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
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.
Quotes from your photos
Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the entire bath
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Repairs by material
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.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Why repair rather than replace?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Prices start from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Common questions in Cherry Burton
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
How long is the bath unusable?
Usually a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Is there a smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Have chips seen to early
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
What we can’t put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Holes rusted through the metal
- A metal bath with a through crack
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
What happens on the day
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a full day. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- 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 next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cherry Burton as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
