Bath re-enamelling in Sullom, done in place
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. Our technicians work on basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are worn patches where water runs and sits and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Questions from Sullom
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.
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Will there be fumes?
Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.
Can you price it without visiting?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Sullom?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
How long does re-enamelling last?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
- What the surface is made of
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A photo taken from further back
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes most of the day. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Ensure the area is dry
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.
Advice
Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Sullom
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For anyone letting property in or around Sullom, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
