How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Glenbervie. The price reflects:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Bath re-enamelling in Glenbervie without replacing anything
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, with the bath ready to use the following day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Our repair technicians work on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people get in touch are worn patches where water runs and sits and an outdated colour you’d like to change.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Glenbervie as everywhere else we work.

Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Have chips seen to early
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
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.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Common problems we fix in Glenbervie
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, and only the surface is worn. The body of the bath is usually perfectly sound.
The things customers usually mention when they call are:
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
Before you book anyone
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How your room will be protected

Materials and what they mean for the repair
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 needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
