Bath re-enamelling in Dry Drayton without replacing anything
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Typical jobs include thin, worn enamel in places and a coating lifting around the plughole, across Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Dry Drayton as everywhere else we work.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a bath typically involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and normally one day, with the bath ready the following day. Prices start from £350. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
What you get with us
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Straight answers about what a repair can do

For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.
Common questions in Dry Drayton
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Dry Drayton?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your CB23 postcode.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, frequently. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Is there a smell?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Repair dripping taps early
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. There is no area surcharge for Dry Drayton. What changes the price is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Dry Drayton, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- A bath that is rusted through
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
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.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
How it works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to the best part of a day, tidy-up included.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the following day.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
