What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Does re-enamelling smell?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
What we cannot put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
Why repair rather than replace?
When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Nothing else is disturbed. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
What you get with us
- A fixed quote before you book
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- One price list for the entire UK
- A year’s guarantee on all work

Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Store bottles off the bath
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
How the visit works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a full day. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the area is dry
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
