How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Horsehold. The price comes down to:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your photos

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Landlord and trade work in Horsehold

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Horsehold as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a full day. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your HX7 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Common questions in Horsehold

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

How long does re-enamelling last?

A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.

How long will the bath be out of use?

Typically one day, with the bath ready the day after. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.

Do you cover Horsehold?

We do. We send a technician to Horsehold for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Horsehold?

Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your HX7 postcode.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use

Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

When a repair is not the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Steel that has corroded right through

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

  • Cast iron baths
  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Acrylic baths

  • Stains that won’t shift
  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
  • Wear marks under the taps
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
