Repair or replace: which is better?
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s also far quicker. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

About our bath re-enamelling in Clifton
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. If you are dealing with stains that won’t shift and thin, worn enamel in places, we can help, on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and acrylic baths alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

What else we do in Clifton
How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Store bottles off the bath
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Clifton as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
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.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Clifton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for the best part of a day. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- 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
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
