Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes most of the day. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- 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.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Common questions in South Zeal
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Generally, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send photos.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your EX20 postcode.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, often. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to South Zeal. The price comes down to:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your photos
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
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.

For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
