DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Access to the area
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Kings Moss, and we will reply with a fixed price.
How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
How it works
You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It typically takes the best part of a day, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
