How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

Lower Pennington questions
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send pictures.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Lower Pennington.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Generally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
When to call us in Lower Pennington
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Several chips and rust patches
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Wear marks under the taps
What your quote should include
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a full day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Ensure the area is dry
- Open a window if you can
How to get a price
Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your SO41 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Advice
Can I fix it myself?
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 frequently lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Repair or replace: which is better?
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s much quicker too. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
What you get with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
Read our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
What a repair cannot fix
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- A bath split right through the body
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
