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. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes the best part of a day. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- The bath is left to cure and can generally be used the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice
Landlords, agents and businesses in East Lavington
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Questions from East Lavington
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
Do you work in East Lavington?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to East Lavington. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
Will there be fumes?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Never use suction bath mats
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A bath split right through the body
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Access to the area
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
