Goonown questions
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Most baths are done in a day, ready the day after. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Do you come to Goonown?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Goonown. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Goonown
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, and you can use the bath the following day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Our repair technicians work on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

When we would advise against a repair
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- A bath that is rusted through
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Have chips seen to early
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
Repair or replace in Goonown?
There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing typically wins. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Goonown use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A photo taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a full day, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
