What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your CB21 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Bath re-enamelling in Weston Colville, done in place

We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Whether it’s an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, we can usually put it right.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Is my repair covered?

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

For anyone letting property in or around Weston Colville, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

The process

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for the best part of a day. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Make sure the area is dry

Getting a price

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse off any bath products.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

When to call us in Weston Colville

Older baths often have several problems at once: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Resurfacing sorts them out together.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How the room is protected while they work
