Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Avoid suction-cup mats
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, so limescale can’t build up.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.
Bath re-enamelling in Whitchurch Canonicorum, done in place
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. We are frequently asked to fix a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and an old resurfacing that’s failing, in basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
What we can’t put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A bath split right through the body
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
