Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

- Everything repaired in place
- One price list for the entire UK
- Colour-matched on site
- Work done at your home or business
Take a look at our full price list and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Never use suction bath mats
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
How the visit works
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes most of the day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s usually ready the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Hillington
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Do you come to Hillington?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Hillington. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, 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 is easier on the people living there.
What else we do in Hillington
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Hillington. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A picture taken from further back
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
