Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Why repair rather than replace?
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, normally one day, and the bath is usable the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Why us?
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- We leave the room as we found it

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
What affects the price in Wonford
Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A photo taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
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 the same day in most cases.
Common questions in Wonford
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
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 happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Will the bath be moved?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.

How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take the best part of a day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the following day.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know about parking or access
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

What we’re called out for in Wonford
By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Wear marks under the taps
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
What your quote should include
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What preparation is included
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How changes to the job are handled
Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
