Bath re-enamelling at your home in Runfold
We do not move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. It normally takes one visit, and can be used again the day after. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and acrylic baths, and common reasons people contact us are a peeling or bubbling previous coating and wear marks under the taps.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

Repairing versus replacing in Runfold
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Prices start from £350. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why Runfold clients choose us
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- One price list for the whole UK
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Fixed prices from your photos

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

- Lots of chips and rust spots

DIY kit or professional 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. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Avoid suction-cup mats
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, so limescale can’t build up.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Runfold questions
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed price. You are under no obligation.
Is there a smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Will the new finish last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
