About our bath re-enamelling in Water Newton
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, re-enamelling is usually the most cost-effective option. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. We work on Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays, and people most frequently call us about an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and a coloured bath you want in white.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
When a repair is not the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Holes rusted through the metal
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths

Water Newton: your questions answered
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Is there a smell?
A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Why repair rather than replace?
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. 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Why us?
- A fixed quote before you book
- No need to remove anything
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- One visit for most repairs
Take a look at our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
How the visit works
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take most of the day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- The bath is left to cure and can generally be used the day after.
How to prepare
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, so limescale cannot build up.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, 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, then guarantee it for a year.
