How we handle bath re-enamelling in Skirbeck Quarter
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. We work on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops, and people most often call us about a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and a roll-top that’s seen better days.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
When a repair is not the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A bath split right through the body
- A bath that is rusted through
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Skirbeck Quarter?
Frequently the bath has just had decades of use, with nothing wrong except the surface. The body of the bath is usually perfectly sound.
The things customers normally mention when they call include:
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- A coloured bath you want in white
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- Thin, worn enamel in places
Before you book anyone
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How changes to the job are handled
- What protection goes down before work starts
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
What happens on the day
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a full day. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Avoid suction-cup mats
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

Should you replace it?
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too. Prices start from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Skirbeck Quarter: your questions answered
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Does re-enamelling smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
