Bath re-enamelling in Cofton Common, done in place
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, re-enamelling is typically the most cost-effective option. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. We are frequently asked to fix a peeling or bubbling previous coating and chips and rust in more than one place, in basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

What happens on the day
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow the best part of a day.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Ensure the area is dry
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Cofton Common
Previous coatings can fail too, lifting by the plughole or blistering. We strip what’s failing and start again.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- Wear marks under the taps
- A coating lifting around the plughole
Questions to ask before you book
- How long it needs to cure
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

- What protection goes down before work starts
What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Cofton Common. What changes the price is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Cofton Common. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A picture taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Never use suction bath mats
Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rental properties take more wear, 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.
Should you replace it?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is normally much cheaper than replacing it, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s also far quicker. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.
Why book with us
- Colour-matched on site
- A fixed quote before booking
- No need to remove anything
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
See our prices page or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
What a repair cannot fix
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in Cofton Common
