How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Pottersheath
Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without taking anything out. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. Our technicians work on Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people contact us are a peeling or bubbling previous coating and a roll-top that’s seen better days.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Pottersheath?
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
Look out for these signs:
- Several chips and rust patches
- Wear marks under the taps
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits

How the visit works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a full day from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
How to get a price
Upload pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your AL6 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Advice
When a repair isn’t the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Pottersheath: your questions answered
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Is there a smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Pottersheath. Prices don’t change with location.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Have chips seen to early
Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Repair or replace in Pottersheath?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
