How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Ravenhead. The price comes down to:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in St Helens and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
Repair or replace: which is better?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is usually much cheaper than replacing it, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why book with us
- No need to remove anything
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Honest advice, even when it means no job

How the visit works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a full day. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s generally ready the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Ravenhead
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Most baths are done in a day, ready the following day. We will confirm timings when we quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.
