What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The material and finish
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is
  • How easy the damage is to reach

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • One picture of the entire bath
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Bath re-enamelling in East Barsham, done in place

We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Common call-outs are for an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and thin, worn enamel in places, on pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow the best part of a day.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.

Clients generally contact us about:

  • Several chips and rust patches
  • An old resurfacing that is failing
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • A coloured bath you want in white

Choosing a repair company

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in East Barsham

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

How long does re-enamelling take?

Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send pictures.

Do you work in East Barsham?

We do. We send a technician to East Barsham for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

When a repair isn’t the answer

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Acrylic baths
  • Cast iron baths

How to look after the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale

The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
