Do you need bath re-enamelling in Trowley Bottom?
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.

- Wear marks under the taps
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- The material
- How many areas need work
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A picture taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Trowley Bottom, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse off any bath products.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
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’re refitting the whole room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing usually wins. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Trowley Bottom: your questions answered
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Does the bath have to be removed?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Trowley Bottom.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
What a repair can’t fix
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths

The process
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take most of the day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Ensure the area is dry
