Bath re-enamelling in Tolskithy, done in place

The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the next day. If you’re dealing with an old resurfacing that’s failing and a roll-top that’s seen better days, we can help, on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths alike.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

What do you need from me?

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes most of the day. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Related advice

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

  • Pressed steel baths
  • Acrylic baths
  • Cast iron baths
  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Basins & shower trays

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Respect the curing time we give you

Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, normally one day, and the bath is usable the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. What it costs 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 price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Why us?

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • No need to remove anything
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Usually one visit, start to finish

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Tolskithy?

A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • Wear marks under the taps
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring

Before booking anyone

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Choosing a repair company

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
