How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
About our bath re-enamelling in Whiteinch
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, and we take our time over it. If you are dealing with an outdated colour you’d like to change and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, we can normally put it right.
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.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Questions from Whiteinch
How long will the bath be out of use?
Typically one day, with the bath ready the day after. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Repairing versus replacing in Whiteinch
There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A few things move the price: 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?
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Colour-matched on site

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.
When to call us in Whiteinch
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, with nothing wrong except the surface. The body of the bath is generally perfectly sound.
Customers normally contact us about:
- Several chips and rust patches
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Worn patches where water runs and sits

Advice
How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Never use suction bath mats
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
