DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
- How easy the damage is to reach
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A picture taken from further back
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Crowcombe Heathfield: your questions answered
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Does re-enamelling smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.
Does the bath have to be removed?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

What else we do in Crowcombe Heathfield
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
If you manage property in Crowcombe Heathfield, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
What happens on the day
We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take most of the day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Open a window if you can

Repairing versus replacing in Crowcombe Heathfield
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is normally 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. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
