Bath Re-enamelling in Wicklane
Our technicians come to Wicklane for full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Bath re-enamelling in Wicklane, done in place
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, with the bath ready to use the following day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Whether it’s a bath in a colour that no longer suits and chips and rust in more than one place, we can typically put it right, on Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays alike.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Wicklane and across Bath and North East Somerset.

Wicklane: your questions answered
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Wicklane included. Travel is included in the price.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Do you come to Wicklane?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Wicklane for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can you quote from pictures?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Why repair rather than replace?
If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Why us?
- Everything repaired in place
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

When we would advise against a repair
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

The process
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take the best part of a day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
