Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Repair dripping taps early
- Get any chip repaired quickly
Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

Repairing versus replacing in Lydiard Green
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is typically much cheaper than replacing it, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s also far quicker. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. 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.

What happens on the day
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a full day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Advice
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A photo taken from further back
- Any details about the material
If you’re in Lydiard Green and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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 usually the cheaper route.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Lydiard Green
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
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.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.

Honest limits
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- A metal bath with a through crack
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
