Bath re-enamelling at your home in Cockett
We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. We work on pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and thin, worn enamel in places.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Advice
What affects the price in Cockett
Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Cockett. The price comes down to:
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the whole bath
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Cockett, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Cockett: your questions answered
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Cockett?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.
When to call us in Cockett
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, lifting by the plughole or blistering. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Several chips and rust patches
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it

Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Honest limits
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- A bath split right through the body
- Steel that has corroded right through
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Should you replace it?
When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Nothing else is disturbed. Prices start from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
