How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: 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.
Getting a price from pictures
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Most clients in Netherfield get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Netherfield
Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without a refit. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. We’re often asked to fix an outdated colour you’d like to change and worn patches where water runs and sits, across basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Get any chip repaired quickly
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
