About our bath re-enamelling in Drym
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, re-enamelling is usually the most cost-effective option. There is no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. Typical jobs include an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, across acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Drym
Previous coatings can fail too, lifting by the plughole or blistering. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Chips and rust in more than one place
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What preparation is included
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
What a repair cannot fix
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A bath that’s rusted through
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take the best part of a day, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Related advice
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Repair or replace in Drym?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and normally one day, and the bath can be used the day after. 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 play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why book with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- One visit for most repairs
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Drym questions
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, frequently. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Will the bath be moved?
No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
