Bath re-enamelling at your home in Highleadon
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Common call-outs are for an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and lots of chips and rust spots, on pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Highleadon. What changes the price is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A photo taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Details of any past repairs
Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your GL18 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Highleadon questions
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is there a smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes most of the day in most cases. The room is left tidy.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- 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 until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Related advice
When a repair is not the answer
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A metal bath with a through crack
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Highleadon use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Never use suction bath mats
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

Repair or replace in Highleadon?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is typically much cheaper than replacing it, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s much quicker too. Prices start from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Highleadon?
