How we handle bath re-enamelling in Penponds
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we do not cut corners on it. If you’re dealing with staining under the taps and around the waste and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Penponds questions
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Typically a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Are there extra charges for Penponds?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It typically takes the best part of a day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Penponds, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
What we are called out for in Penponds
Hard water speeds up the wear, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
Clients generally contact us about:
- Several chips and rust patches
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
Questions to ask before booking
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How the room is protected while they work
- What aftercare is recommended
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple:
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
What affects the price in Penponds
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the entire bath
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Holes rusted through the metal
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
