Bath re-enamelling at your home in Copplestone
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, re-enamelling is normally the most cost-effective option. There is no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. We work on Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths, and people most frequently call us about stains that won’t shift and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- A bath split right through the body
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
Should I try a DIY kit 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, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Copplestone
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Copplestone as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Should you replace it?
A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the whole surface with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why book with us
- One price list for the entire UK
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
See our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes most of the day, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the following day.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Keep a parking space free if you can

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Copplestone. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Store bottles off the bath
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
