Questions from Eastfield
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Will the new finish last?
Care for it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.
Bath re-enamelling in Eastfield without replacing anything
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. Whether it’s enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and an old resurfacing that’s failing, we can help, whatever the material.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

What else we do in Eastfield
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- A bath that’s rusted through
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we work on in Eastfield
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths

What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a full day, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the next day.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Ask for a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.
What we are called out for in Eastfield
By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Resurfacing sorts them out together.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- Thin, worn enamel in places
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How to look after the finish
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
What your bath is made of matters
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.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, usually one day, with the bath back in use the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Eastfield. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
