Bath Re-enamelling for Hogaland homes
We travel to Hogaland for full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- A coating lifting around the plughole
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Hogaland
If your bath is sound but looks tired, resurfacing is normally the best value. There’s no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. Our technicians work on cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths, and people most often call us about an outdated colour you’d like to change and a roll-top that’s seen better days.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Hogaland as everywhere else we work.

Common questions in Hogaland
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your ZE2 postcode.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
How long does re-enamelling last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
What else we do in Hogaland
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Hogaland. The price reflects:
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
- The material
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, generally one day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually.

- 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.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
How to prepare

What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Common problems we fix in Hogaland
Often the bath has just had decades of use, with nothing wrong except the surface. The body of the bath is normally perfectly sound.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Stains that won’t shift
- Chips and rust in more than one place
What your quote should include
- Whether the price covers travel
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- How soon you can use it again
- Who turns up on the day
