How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Tilton on the Hill. The price comes down to:
- The material
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed price
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
For a price in Tilton on the Hill, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Tilton on the Hill, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Store bottles off the bath
- Never use suction bath mats
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
When to call us in Tilton on the Hill
Frequently the bath has just had decades of use, and only the surface is worn. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is normally as strong as ever.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- Stains that will not shift
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- Thin, worn enamel in places
Questions to ask before booking
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How your room will be protected

How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a full day, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Repair or replace: which is better?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
