Bath re-enamelling in Ridge, done in place
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. If you are dealing with a roll-top that’s seen better days and staining under the taps and around the waste, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a full day. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price

Ridge questions
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, and that includes Ridge. Prices do not change with location.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Will there be fumes?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send photos.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ridge use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Repair dripping taps early
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, generally one day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Ridge. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
What you get with us
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Work done at your home or business
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Colour mixed on the day to match

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Most clients in Ridge get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What else we do in Ridge

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
