About our bath re-enamelling in Swineshead
The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. It typically takes one visit, and can be used again the following day. Common call-outs are for chips and rust in more than one place and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, in pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Swineshead. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A picture taken from further back
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Swineshead questions
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Is there a smell?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Are there extra charges for Swineshead?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
For anyone letting property in or around Swineshead, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Store bottles off the bath
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Repair dripping taps early
Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Repair or replace in Swineshead?
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Prices start from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
What you get with us
- Everything repaired in place
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK

What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
How it works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a full day. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- 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.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Ask for a price
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

What we cannot put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- A bath split right through the body
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
