Bath re-enamelling in Ruscombe, done in place
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. We’re often asked to fix a coating lifting around the plughole and thin, worn enamel in places, across pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

FAQs for Ruscombe
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
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.
Will there be fumes?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. There is no charge for travel to Ruscombe. The price comes down to:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Why repair rather than replace?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and typically one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Prices start from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Ruscombe. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Respect the curing time we give you
Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse off any bath products.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
When to call us in Ruscombe
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Several chips and rust patches
- Stains that will not shift
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
Before booking anyone
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What preparation is included
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Honest limits
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A bath split right through the body
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Holes rusted through the metal
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
