How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the entire bath
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your SG5 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
About our bath re-enamelling in Fairfield
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Our technicians work on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are wear marks under the taps and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Fairfield as everywhere else we work.

Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Store bottles off the bath
- Get any chip repaired quickly
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a bath usually involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and usually one day, with the bath ready the next day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. 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. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
What you get with us
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Colour-matched on site
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish

What we cannot put right
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- A bath split right through the body
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops

What we are called out for in Fairfield
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
The things clients normally mention when they call include:
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
What your quote should include
- Who will actually do the work
- Aftercare advice
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What protection goes down before work starts
