Common questions in Hundred Acres
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your PO17 postcode.
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.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Hundred Acres
If your bath is sound but looks tired, re-enamelling is usually the most cost-effective option. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. We’re frequently asked to fix a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and an old resurfacing that’s failing, across basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Repairing versus replacing in Hundred Acres

Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Repairs by material
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.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Hundred Acres. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
- The size and number of damaged areas
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Hundred Acres, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Store bottles off the bath
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
