How we handle bath re-enamelling in Tiddleywink
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, with the bath ready to use the following day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Our technicians work on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops, and people most often call us about a peeling or bubbling previous coating and wear marks under the taps.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

The process
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes most of the day, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

For landlords and businesses
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 regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the whole bath
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Email us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your SN14 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
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 is the part we put right.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
FAQs for Tiddleywink
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Tiddleywink?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

What else we do in Tiddleywink
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the entire room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Prices start from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Tiddleywink
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
What your quote should include
- Aftercare advice
- When it can be used again
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
