Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Have chips seen to early
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Bath re-enamelling in Foggathorpe without replacing anything
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we don’t cut corners on it. We are frequently asked to fix a coating lifting around the plughole and lots of chips and rust spots, across acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Foggathorpe and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
- The material
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Repairing versus replacing in Foggathorpe

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Foggathorpe. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Honest limits

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

- 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.

Other services in Foggathorpe
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Foggathorpe?
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Several chips and rust patches
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
