What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in East End
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a roll-top that’s seen better days and a peeling or bubbling previous coating.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Staining under the taps and around the waste

Landlords, agents and businesses in East End
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Suffolk and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Repair or replace: which is better?
There are times replacing is better: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the whole room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing generally wins. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Store bottles off the bath
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Common questions in East End
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Will there be fumes?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
How long does re-enamelling take?
One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.
Do you come to East End?
We do. Technicians travel to East End from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Does the bath have to be removed?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.

- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Advice
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
