How we handle bath re-enamelling in Pot Bank
Resurfacing renews the entire surface of the bath without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. We regularly repair acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a peeling or bubbling previous coating and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Pot Bank and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Common questions in Pot Bank
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Will the bath be moved?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.
Can I fix it myself?
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 usually the cheaper route.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Common problems we fix in Pot Bank
Frequently the bath has just had decades of use. The body of the bath is generally perfectly sound.
Most people contact us when they notice something like this:
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- Several chips and rust patches
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
What to look for in a quote
- Aftercare advice
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How your room will be protected
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Repair dripping taps early
- Store bottles off the bath
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what 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 usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, usually one day, and the bath is usable the day after. Prices start from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
What you get with us
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- One price list for the entire UK
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
