What we are called out for in Fengate
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.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
What your quote should include
- How long it needs to cure
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- What protection goes down before work starts
- If travel is included in the price
Bath re-enamelling in Fengate, done in place
We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. If you are dealing with lots of chips and rust spots and a coloured bath you want in white, we can help, on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes a full day. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Getting a price
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Fix dripping taps quickly
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

What bath re-enamelling costs
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
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and typically a day. Prices start from £350. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Fengate: your questions answered
Do you need to take the bath out?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, frequently. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
How long is the bath unusable?
Usually a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
When we would advise against a repair
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- A metal bath with a through crack
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
