For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The size and number of damaged areas
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Malting Green. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, particularly with hard water, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, 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 prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Honest limits
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- A bath split right through the body
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
How it works
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take the best part of a day, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Ask for a price
