Common problems we fix in Higherford
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
Look out for these signs:
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
What your quote should include
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- If travel is included in the price
- When it can be used again
Repair or replace: which is better?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is generally much cheaper than replacing it, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s also far quicker. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Never use suction bath mats
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
