About our bath re-enamelling in Pillowell
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Our repair technicians work on acrylic baths, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths, and people most often call us about a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and stains that won’t shift.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Pillowell as everywhere else we work.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
- Doing more than one item at once
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the entire bath
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your GL15 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Pillowell?
Enamel does not fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, generally first under the taps and around the waste.
The things customers normally mention when they call include:
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Lots of chips and rust spots
What to look for in a quote
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What happens if they find more damage
- Who will actually do the work
Questions from Pillowell
Do you cover Pillowell?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Pillowell. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Store bottles off the bath
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. 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.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
How it works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a full day. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
