Bath re-enamelling in Zeal Monachorum without replacing anything
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. We work on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops, and people most often call us about a coloured bath you want in white and worn patches where water runs and sits.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

How the visit works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to most of the day, tidy-up included.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Open a window if you can

Other services in Zeal Monachorum
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Common questions in Zeal Monachorum
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Are there extra charges for Zeal Monachorum?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Will the new finish last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Zeal Monachorum. The price reflects:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the whole bath
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Repair or replace in Zeal Monachorum?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and usually a day, and the bath is usable the day after. Prices start from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
What you get with us
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Normally one visit, start to finish
- Colour mixed on the day to match

Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
