If you’re visiting our website, you’re probably considering whether to restore or replace a worn or damaged bath, shower tray or sink. Here you can compare the available resurfacing systems and choose the option best suited to your needs and budget. We aim to restore the surface to a clean, like-new finish while saving you the time, cost and disruption associated with replacement.
Why is bath repair better than replacement?
Our work comes with a 5, 7 or 10-year warranty (depending on the system). With the right care, the finish can last for many years.
Our services start at £160 for chip/crack repairs and £430 for bath resurfacing, far cheaper than replacement and bathroom repairs costing £2000–£5000.
Bath resurfacing usually takes 5–7 hours, and the bath is ready to use after 24 hours. This is much quicker than replacement and the associated bathroom work.
With resurfacing at Bath Solutions, you avoid costly bathroom renovations and prolonged disruptions, nearly inevitable with replacement.
Restoration with Bath Solutions eliminates the stress of replacement, with no need to coordinate plumbers, tilers, or builders required for replacement and repairs.
Resurfacing keeps the existing bath in use and can reduce the waste and disruption associated with removing and replacing it.

We offer both spray enamel and liquid acrylic resurfacing, allowing the coating system to be matched to the bath, budget and expected service life. Acrylic systems form a thicker coating than spray enamel and are suited to customers looking for greater durability.
We explain the practical differences between our Budget, Standard and Premium options and provide a clear quotation before work begins.

Bath resurfacing typically takes 5–7 hours depending on complexity and the chosen method. All work is done at your home without removing the bath, avoiding damage to tiles, taps, floors, or drains.
1. Inspection: The specialist conducts a visual inspection and protects walls, floors, and furniture from dust and enamel.
2. Surface Preparation: The specialist removes the sealant between the bath and tiles, then sands the surface with special sandpaper to remove gloss, limescale, dirt, salts, and old enamel (if previously restored). This creates a smooth, non-glossy surface for excellent adhesion, ensuring durability for years.
3. Cleaning and Drying: Dust and debris are removed, and the surface is cleaned, degreased, dried, and warmed.
4. Final Inspection: The specialist ensures no dust, particles, or glossy spots remain. The coating is then applied, with the method depending on the chosen technology, typically taking no more than an hour. The bath must not be touched or wetted for 24 hours after application.
5. Cleanup: After applying the coating, our technician removes the protective film, masking materials and debris, leaving the bathroom clean.
The bath is ready for use 24 hours after completion.
Yes, we can restore nearly all types of baths, including:
- Cast Iron: Durable, common in older homes, easily restored with our coatings.
- Acrylic: Lightweight and modern, suitable for spray and acrylic coatings.
- Steel: Common in mid-range homes, restored to a glossy finish.
- Ceramic/Porcelain: Typical in vintage bathrooms, effectively restored.
For non-standard materials (e.g., stone or composite), send photos for a free assessment to confirm restoration feasibility.
The lifespan of a restored bath depends on the coating and how carefully it is maintained:
- Budget Spray Coating: Up to 10 years with proper care.
- Standard Acrylic Coating: 15–20 years with proper care.
- Premium Acrylic Coating: Over 20 years with proper care.
Regular care (e.g., using non-abrasive cleaners) significantly extends the lifespan.
Yes, in most cases, we can restore baths with rust or stains:
1. Rust Removal: We sand and treat rusted areas to prevent further corrosion before applying the coating.
2. Stain Treatment: Deep stains (e.g., from limescale or dyes) are removed during surface preparation.
3. Severe Cases: For extensive damage, we perform deep cleaning and leveling of damaged areas to create a uniform surface, resulting in a bath that looks brand new.

The guarantee ensures that the coating adheres properly, meaning the work is done to high standards. If you damage the coating:
- Minor Damage: We offer chip/crack repairs from £160, seamlessly blending with the existing coating.
- Major Damage: In some cases, full bath resurfacing may be required, starting from £430.
- Guarantee: Our guarantee covers adhesion and application-related defects for 1, 5, 7 or 10 years,
depending on the service selected. Accidental or mechanical damage is not covered. If damage occurs, contact us for an assessment and repair quote.
No, our restoration process is non-invasive:
- Tiles: We protect tiles with masking, removing only the sealant between the bath and tiles, which we replace after resurfacing.
- Plumbing: Our technology allows restoration without removing taps, drains, or waste and overflow. However, we recommend disconnecting them if possible to apply the coating underneath. The next day, if needed, our technician will return to reconnect the waste and overflow, drains, and taps.
The process is designed to avoid any disruption to your bathroom.
Resurfacing is ideal for most baths, but here’s how to decide:
- Restoration: Best for surface issues such as scratches, chips, cracks, stains, rust and dullness. It can save up to 70% compared with replacement and is usually completed in 5–7 hours. Bath resurfacing starts from £430.
- Replacement: Required in rare cases when restoration is not feasible or practical due to structural damage (e.g., large holes or a cracked base). These are extremely rare cases. Bathtub replacement costs from £2000, including the bath, delivery, installation, and related bathroom work.
Send photos for a free assessment to confirm whether resurfacing/repair is suitable for your bath.
