What affects the price in Overstone
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
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. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:
- One picture of the whole bath
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
About our bath re-enamelling in Overstone
Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without taking anything out. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people contact us are a roll-top that’s seen better days and a coloured bath you want in white.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Common problems we fix in Overstone
By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.
The things customers usually mention when they call are:
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Wear marks under the taps

When we would advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Holes rusted through the metal
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on

Overstone questions
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Will there be fumes?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
How long does re-enamelling last?
Care for it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Do you come to Overstone?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Overstone. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Should you replace it?
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. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
