Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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 generally the cheaper route.
Bath re-enamelling in Sully and Lavernock, done in place
If your bath is sound but looks tired, re-enamelling is usually the most cost-effective option. There’s no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. Our repair technicians work on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths, and people most often call us about a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and wear marks under the taps.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Fix dripping taps quickly
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
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.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the entire bath
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Landlord and trade work in Sully and Lavernock
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Sully and Lavernock use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
What a repair cannot fix
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Holes rusted through the metal
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

How quickly can you book me in?

Repair or replace: which is better?
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 typically wins. Prices start from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
