Bath re-enamelling at your home in Thorpe Audlin
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. Whether it’s a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and staining under the taps and around the waste, we can help, on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Thorpe Audlin. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A photo taken from further back
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.
What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Common questions in Thorpe Audlin
How long does re-enamelling last?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Normally one day, with the bath ready the day after. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Different materials, different repairs
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
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
