How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Dovendale. The price comes down to:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
- How many areas need work
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Dovendale. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Dovendale
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, with the bath ready to use the following day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. Our technicians work on basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths, and people most frequently call us about a coloured bath you want in white and a peeling or bubbling previous coating.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes most of the day for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the next day.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Related advice
What we cannot put right
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Basins & shower trays

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Dovendale
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is there a smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.

Across the UK, and that includes Dovendale. Prices don’t change with location.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, often. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
