How we handle bath re-enamelling in Scouthead
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Common call-outs are for worn patches where water runs and sits and a coating lifting around the plughole, on Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Common questions in Scouthead
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Scouthead?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can landlords book you?

What we cannot put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

- Holes rusted through the metal
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair

- Basins & shower trays

Should you replace it?
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s also far quicker. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good.

How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse off any bath products.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Scouthead. What changes the price is:
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One picture of the entire bath
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

- 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 next day.
