Bath re-enamelling at your home in Snedshill
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without taking anything out. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. We’re frequently asked to fix brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and wear marks under the taps, on Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Snedshill
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
Look out for these signs:
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Chips and rust in more than one place
Before booking anyone

Repair or replace: which is better?
If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Nothing else is disturbed. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How it works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take most of the day, tidy-up included.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Snedshill. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A photo taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Questions from Snedshill
Will the bath be moved?
No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A bath that is rusted through
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
