How we handle bath re-enamelling in Sorn
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. Typical jobs include a roll-top that’s seen better days and an outdated colour you’d like to change, on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Why repair rather than replace?
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s much quicker too. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Respect the curing time we give you
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Sorn
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, and only the surface is worn. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is generally as strong as ever.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A coloured bath you want in white

Sorn: your questions answered
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
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.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you work in Sorn?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Sorn. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a full day. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
Getting a price
Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your KA5 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
