What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Dunburgh
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. Common call-outs are for an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, across acrylic baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Common problems we fix in Dunburgh
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, peeling around the waste or bubbling. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- An old resurfacing that is failing
Questions to ask before you book
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What happens if they find more damage
- How soon you can use it again
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
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.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath generally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and typically one day, with the bath ready the next day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Dunburgh. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why us?
- A fixed quote before booking
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Typically one visit, start to finish

Dunburgh: your questions answered
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send photos.
How long is the bath unusable?
Typically a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Do you come to Dunburgh?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Dunburgh. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Are there extra charges for Dunburgh?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which generally takes most of the day. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- The bath is left to cure and can normally be used the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Ask for 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 will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
