Bath re-enamelling in Poyle without replacing anything
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. We work on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people contact us are a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the whole bath
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
For anyone letting property in or around Poyle, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

FAQs for Poyle
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Normally, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send photos.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Do you cover Poyle?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Poyle for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
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.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the entire room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing generally wins. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Poyle. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Never use suction bath mats
- Respect the curing time we give you
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
