Bath re-enamelling at your home in Drongan
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we do not cut corners on it. Common call-outs are for chips and rust in more than one place and an old resurfacing that’s failing, in pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the entire bath
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.
Common problems we fix in Drongan
Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits

How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Never use suction bath mats
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
FAQs for Drongan
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, frequently. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
How long is the bath unusable?
One day for most baths, ready the next day. We will confirm timings when we quote.
Will the bath be moved?
No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath usually involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and typically one day, with the bath ready the following day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
