Bath re-enamelling in Ladock, done in place
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Common call-outs are for a bath in a colour that no longer suits and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, in basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

When a repair isn’t the answer
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A bath that is rusted through
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow the best part of a day from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Ensure the area is dry
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- The type of damage
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Common problems we fix in Ladock
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used. The body of the bath is usually perfectly sound.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
What your quote should include
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- How soon you can use it again
- How your room will be protected
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
What do you need from me?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Normally, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Do you work in Ladock?
We do. Technicians travel to Ladock from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Repairing versus replacing in Ladock
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and generally a day, with the bath back in use the following day. Prices start from £350. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
What you get with us
- One visit for most repairs
- Work done at your home or business
- We leave the room as we found it
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
