How we handle bath re-enamelling in Evie
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Our repair technicians work on acrylic baths, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are a roll-top that’s seen better days and staining under the taps and around the waste.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

Common problems we fix in Evie
By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Resurfacing sorts them out together.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Stains that won’t shift
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Evie questions
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Is there a smell?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Evie?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
When we would advise against a repair
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- A metal bath with a through crack

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a full day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, normally one day, and the bath is usable the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. 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.
Why us?
- One price list for the entire UK
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

What affects the price in Evie
Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
