What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- What the surface is made of
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can price the job without visiting.
About our bath re-enamelling in Wigtown
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we do not cut corners on it. Our repair technicians work on basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are a bath in a colour that no longer suits and lots of chips and rust spots.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Wigtown as everywhere else we work.

Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Have chips seen to early
- Store bottles off the bath
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
How it works
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes the best part of a day, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- 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
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

When a repair isn’t the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

When to call us in Wigtown

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
