DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
About our bath re-enamelling in Galmpton
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, with the bath ready to use the following day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. Common call-outs are for a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and lots of chips and rust spots, in pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Should you replace it?
A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and typically a day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Galmpton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- One picture of the whole bath
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Respect the curing time we give you
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Have chips seen to early
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes the best part of a day. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know about parking or access
- Open a window if you can

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
