- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Erwarton
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Whether it’s enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and a coating lifting around the plughole, we can help.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
What affects the price in Erwarton
Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Erwarton. The price comes down to:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the whole bath
For a price in Erwarton, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take most of the day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Getting a price
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.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why us?
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
Read our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Get any chip repaired quickly
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Erwarton
Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off

Erwarton: your questions answered
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
How long does re-enamelling last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Landlord and trade work in Erwarton
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
