What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.

FAQs for Silloth
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Avoid suction-cup mats
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
What a repair cannot fix
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
What we work on
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Silloth
Frequently the bath has just had decades of use, and only the surface is worn. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is typically as strong as ever.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Wear marks under the taps
Questions to ask before booking
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- How the room is protected while they work
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- When it can be used again

Advice
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
