Repairing versus replacing in New Ridley
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and normally a day, with the bath back in use the following day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Bath re-enamelling in New Ridley without replacing anything
Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without a refit. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. We work on Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people get in touch are worn patches where water runs and sits and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, so limescale cannot build up.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in New Ridley
The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- A coating lifting around the plughole

What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
How it works
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow most of the day from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Have a window or extractor fan available

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- The material
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
