Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble 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, it’s worth having it done properly.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Garras
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Whether it’s a bath in a colour that no longer suits and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, we can help, on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths alike.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Should you replace it?
When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
Most clients in Garras get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
What we do, step by step
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a full day. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the following day.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

When to call us in Garras
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
