Bath re-enamelling in Longrock, done in place
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, re-enamelling is usually the most cost-effective option. There is no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are several chips and rust patches and a coating lifting around the plughole.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Longrock as everywhere else we work.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath typically involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes most of the day. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Never use suction bath mats
- Store bottles off the bath
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the entire bath
- Natural light rather than flash
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Holes rusted through the metal
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Longrock
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Lots of chips and rust spots
Before booking anyone
- Aftercare advice
- Who turns up on the day
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- How soon you can use it again
