What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
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. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
About our bath re-enamelling in Lochfoot
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. Our technicians work on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops, and people most often call us about worn patches where water runs and sits and an old resurfacing that’s failing.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Lochfoot and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.

How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take most of the day, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the next day.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
How to get a price

Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Have chips seen to early
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Repair dripping taps early
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
If you manage property in Lochfoot, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Lochfoot?
Frequently the bath has just had decades of use, and only the surface is worn. The body of the bath is normally perfectly sound.
People normally call us after spotting one of these:
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off

Common questions in Lochfoot
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, and that includes Lochfoot. Our prices are the same everywhere.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Lochfoot?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Will there be fumes?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
