Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Holes rusted through the metal
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths

- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
- A photo taken from further back

Advice
How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
When to call us in West Buckland
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
Clients typically contact us about:
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- Stains that won’t shift
What to look for in a quote
- Aftercare advice
- When it can be used again
- How changes to the job are handled
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
