Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the whole room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. 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.
Why us?
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Same prices wherever you are
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Fixed prices from your photos

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Dauntsey Lock. What changes the price is:
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
Rather than charging by the hour, 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 price
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
If you are in Dauntsey Lock and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
Dauntsey Lock: your questions answered
Do you work in Dauntsey Lock?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Dauntsey Lock and the rest of Wiltshire. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- A metal bath with a through crack
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
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.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Dauntsey Lock
For anyone letting property in or around Dauntsey Lock, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Never use suction bath mats
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes the best part of a day. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- The bath is left to cure and can normally be used the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
