Writhlington questions
Is there a smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
- The material
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A photo taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and usually a day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Writhlington. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
What you get with us
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Fixed prices from your pictures

The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take most of the day, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Writhlington?
Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- Wear marks under the taps
What to look for in a quote
- How the room is protected while they work
- What prep work is covered
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How soon you can use it again
