How we handle bath re-enamelling in Hilltop
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. We work on pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays, and people most frequently call us about enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and a peeling or bubbling previous coating.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Hilltop questions
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of Blaenau Gwent. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
The process
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a full day, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the day after.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Related advice
What we cannot put right
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Never use suction bath mats
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Hilltop. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Should you replace it?
There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing generally wins. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- One visit for most repairs
- No need to remove anything
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
