Bath re-enamelling at your home in Dial Post
We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. If you’re dealing with a coating lifting around the plughole and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Dial Post and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Work for landlords and builders
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.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Dial Post as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
When to call us in Dial Post
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
What your quote should include
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

Questions from Dial Post
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Are there extra charges for Dial Post?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can you quote from photos?
Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Does re-enamelling smell?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Will the new finish last?
Care for it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. 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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Dial Post. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why us?
- Fixed prices from your photos
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- One visit for most repairs

What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Dial Post. The price depends on:
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
- What it’s made of, if you know
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a full day. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Make sure the area is dry
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
