How we handle bath re-enamelling in Point Clear
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and a coating lifting around the plughole.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Should you replace it?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What we are called out for in Point Clear

The things clients typically mention when they call include:
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- Wear marks under the taps
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Staining under the taps and around the waste

Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Never use suction bath mats
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

Questions from Point Clear
How long does re-enamelling take?
One day for most baths, ready the following day. We give you timings with the quote.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Point Clear?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is there a smell?
A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed quote
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
