DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Ireland Wood
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are a roll-top that’s seen better days and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Ireland Wood. The price reflects:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A photo taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a full day, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Make sure the area is dry

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths

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.
FAQs for Ireland Wood
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
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 we will quote them together.
Will the bath be moved?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Does re-enamelling smell?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
