Bath re-enamelling in Trevarrack without replacing anything

If your bath is sound but looks tired, re-enamelling is normally the most cost-effective option. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Typical jobs include wear marks under the taps and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, across basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

The size and number of damaged areas
The colour and finish to match
Whether we combine several jobs
Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

The material, if you know it
Any earlier repairs or coatings
A picture taken from further back
A close-up of the damage, in focus

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can price the job.

Questions from Trevarrack

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes, frequently. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send pictures.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.

Do you come to Trevarrack?

We do. Technicians travel to Trevarrack from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Will the new finish last?

It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Common problems we fix in Trevarrack

The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
A roll-top that’s seen better days
Staining under the taps and around the waste
A coating lifting around the plughole

Our hiring checklist

DIY kit or professional repair?

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, then guarantee it for a year.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Should you replace it?

There are times replacing is better: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the entire room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
Fix dripping taps quickly
Get any chip repaired quickly
Store bottles off the bath

The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a full day. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
