Bath re-enamelling at your home in Cobridge
The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. It generally takes one visit, and can be used again the day after. Whether it’s a bath in a colour that no longer suits and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, we can help.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
If you manage property in Cobridge, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Cobridge
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
What affects the price in Cobridge
Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
- The type of damage
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
How to get a fixed price
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Repair dripping taps early
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
How the visit works
The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a full day. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
How to get a price
For a price in Cobridge, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Advice
