How we handle bath re-enamelling in Corton Denham
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Our repair technicians work on basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths, and people most often call us about a roll-top that’s seen better days and chips and rust in more than one place.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Advice
Questions from Corton Denham
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.
Will there be fumes?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, so Corton Denham is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Corton Denham?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Corton Denham.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Get any chip repaired quickly
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Repairing versus replacing in Corton Denham
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is typically much cheaper than replacing it, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s much quicker too. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
