About our bath re-enamelling in Sandy Cross
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. We regularly repair cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are thin, worn enamel in places and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Sandy Cross as everywhere else we work.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Sandy Cross
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you work in Sandy Cross?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Sandy Cross. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Should you replace it?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
- How many items we do on one visit
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A picture taken from further back
- Any details about the material
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Repair dripping taps early
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse off any bath products.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
What else we do in Sandy Cross
What we are called out for in Sandy Cross
Older baths frequently have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Resurfacing sorts them out together.
Most people contact us after spotting something like this:
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- Wear marks under the taps
What your quote should include
- What aftercare is recommended
- How your room will be protected
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
How the visit works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes most of the day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear the area around the damage
Getting a price
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
