Bath re-enamelling at your home in Cotton End
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. We work on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths, and the jobs we see most are a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and a coating lifting around the plughole.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Repair or replace in Cotton End?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is usually much cheaper than replacing it, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s also far quicker. Prices start from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

See our full price list and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Cotton End
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Do you come to Cotton End?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Cotton End. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
What we cannot put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths

Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
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.
