About our bath re-enamelling in Horcott
We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Common call-outs are for a peeling or bubbling previous coating and staining under the taps and around the waste, in cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Horcott questions
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Generally, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
What else we do in Horcott
When we would advise against a repair
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- A bath split right through the body
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Holes rusted through the metal
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Store bottles off the bath
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Why repair rather than replace?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow most of the day from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- The bath is left to cure and can normally be used the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Advice
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
What affects the price in Horcott
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Horcott
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
People usually call us after spotting something like this:
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Wear marks under the taps
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it

- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What aftercare is recommended
- How your room will be protected
