Bath re-enamelling for Swallowfield, without a refit. Get a fixed price from your pictures, then we come to you.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- A coating lifting around the plughole
How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Bath re-enamelling in Swallowfield without replacing anything
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are worn patches where water runs and sits and a bath in a colour that no longer suits.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow the best part of a day from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for 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.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Make sure the area is dry
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
FAQs for Swallowfield
Do you come to Swallowfield?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Swallowfield and the rest of West Berkshire. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can I fix it myself?
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.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath usually involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and generally one day, with the bath ready the following day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.

What affects the price in Swallowfield
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
How to get a fixed price
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
If you are in Swallowfield and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
