Bath re-enamelling in Gillar's Green without replacing anything
We don’t move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It usually takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. We regularly repair acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths, and the jobs we see most are a roll-top that’s seen better days and a bath in a colour that no longer suits.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

For landlords and businesses
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Store bottles off the bath
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.
Questions from Gillar's Green
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Gillar's Green. The price reflects:
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Gillar's Green. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
When to call us in Gillar's Green
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, peeling around the waste or bubbling. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- A coloured bath you want in white
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
Comparing quotes
- Who turns up on the day
- What happens if they find more damage
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
When we would advise against a repair
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
