How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
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’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Flackwell Heath questions

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Does someone need to be in?

Is there a smell?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
Common problems we fix in Flackwell Heath
The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring

Landlord and trade work in Flackwell Heath
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.
How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
