Bath re-enamelling in Coton without replacing anything

Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, and you can use the bath the next day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. We work on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays, and people most often call us about a bath in a colour that no longer suits and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

Repair or replace: which is better?

When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Normally one visit, start to finish

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Coton. The price reflects:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any details about the material
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a full day in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Ask for a price

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
  • Get any chip repaired quickly

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.

Common problems we fix in Coton

A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • A roll-top that is seen better days

10 questions to ask before you book

Coton questions

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Coton?

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

Usually, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send pictures.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

When we would advise against a repair

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
