Bath re-enamelling in Harbledown, done in place
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. We work on acrylic baths, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays, and people most often call us about an old resurfacing that’s failing and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
FAQs for Harbledown
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send photos.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Typically a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, normally one day, and the bath is usable the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Harbledown. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Harbledown?
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- Wear marks under the taps
- Several chips and rust patches
Questions to ask before you book
- What protection goes down before work starts
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Who will actually do the work
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a full day. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Ensure the area is dry
Ask for a price
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- One picture of the whole bath
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your CT2 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
