What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Bath re-enamelling in The Scarr, done in place
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, and you can use the bath the next day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. If you are dealing with a coloured bath you want in white and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, we can help.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in The Scarr and across Gloucestershire.

Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Never use suction bath mats
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Repairing versus replacing in The Scarr
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and typically a day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why us?
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Most jobs done in one visit

The Scarr questions
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Gloucestershire.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Usually one day, with the bath ready the day after. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
What we’re called out for in The Scarr
Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, typically first under the taps and around the waste.
People usually call us when they notice one of these:
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Chips and rust in more than one place
What to look for in a quote
- What preparation is included
- How the room is protected while they work
- How long it needs to cure
- How to care for the finish
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in The Scarr as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
How the visit works
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes the best part of a day. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know about parking or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A picture taken from further back
Most clients in The Scarr get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
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.
