How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Cotonwood. The price comes down to:
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Where you are, by postcode
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Cotonwood
The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. Most baths are done in one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Our repair technicians work on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Cotonwood, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Store bottles off the bath
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
When we’d advise against a repair
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 that is rusted through
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Cotonwood

What happens on the day
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes the best part of a day. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Make sure the area is dry
- Clear the area around the damage

Questions from Cotonwood
Do you need to take the bath out?
Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Cotonwood?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
When to call us in Cotonwood
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
