Bath re-enamelling at your home in Cowling
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. We’re often asked to fix an old resurfacing that’s failing and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, across basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
Common questions in Cowling
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What a repair can’t fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Cowling
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
Repair or replace in Cowling?
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Prices start from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Why book with us
- Everything repaired in place
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- One price list for the entire UK
Take a look at our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. There is no area surcharge for Cowling. The price reflects:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
What happens on the day
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take the best part of a day. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Ask for a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
