Bath re-enamelling in Saltmarsh without replacing anything
Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. Whether it’s a coloured bath you want in white and staining under the taps and around the waste, we can normally put it right.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Saltmarsh?
Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.
Look out for any of the following:
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- Stains that won’t shift
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
Before booking anyone
- How changes to the job are handled
- How soon you can use it again
- How to care for the finish
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
What we cannot put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Saltmarsh
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.
Letting agents often send us pictures 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.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Saltmarsh. The price reflects:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
