About our bath re-enamelling in Coomb's End
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Our repair technicians work on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays, and people most frequently call us about a peeling or bubbling previous coating and a roll-top that’s seen better days.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a bath usually involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A bath split right through the body
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
Coomb's End: your questions answered
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, and that includes Coomb's End. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is there a smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Coomb's End. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your BS37 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Get any chip repaired quickly
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
