Bath re-enamelling in West Caister without replacing anything
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. If you are dealing with stains that won’t shift and thin, worn enamel in places, we can typically put it right.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One picture of the whole bath
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and generally a day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.
Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Questions from West Caister
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Generally, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send pictures.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Will the new finish last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
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.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in West Caister?
The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Stains that will not shift
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Lots of chips and rust spots
