How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings

- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode

Bath re-enamelling in Sontley without replacing anything
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. Our technicians work on acrylic baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are lots of chips and rust spots and a bath in a colour that no longer suits.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Common questions in Sontley
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
How long does re-enamelling take?
One day for most baths, ready the next day. We will confirm timings when we quote.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
How the visit works
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a full day, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Sontley use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Repair or replace in Sontley?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the whole room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing normally wins. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
