Bath Re-enamelling in Swan Bottom
Bath re-enamelling across Swan Bottom and nearby, done in a single visit in most cases.
- Resurfacing from £350
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Store bottles off the bath
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

Repair or replace: which is better?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is typically much cheaper than replacing it, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s also far quicker. 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.

Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
What we’re called out for in Swan Bottom
Enamel does not fail overnight. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
Questions to ask before you book
- How changes to the job are handled
- Aftercare advice
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether a trained technician does the job

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Swan Bottom
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Swan Bottom.
Are there extra charges for Swan Bottom?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
Can I fix it myself?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What we cannot put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- A bath split right through the body
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
What we do, step by step
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which typically takes most of the day. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Ask for a price
