How we handle bath re-enamelling in Pickletillum
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Our repair technicians work on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people contact us are thin, worn enamel in places and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Pickletillum. What changes the price is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. 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 quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

What else we do in Pickletillum
Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Store bottles off the bath
- Repair dripping taps early
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Pickletillum
How long is the bath unusable?
Normally one day, with the bath ready the day after. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
What happens on the day
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to most of the day, including clearing up.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s generally ready the next day.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Have a window or extractor fan available
