                    Hello everyone,
 
Can anyone out there let me know if getting a bath re-enameled is a good/ feasible option or not? Husband called two companies from local Yellow pages (Sussex area ) and has been quoted between £285-385 for the job.
 
Can anyone advise if this an acceptable amount for a standard bath, not a roll top and we don't need the sides or anything done?
 
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
 
Thanks

            my mum has also just been quoted 285 to have her bath done. but someone on this forum said you can get a diy kit from plumb centre between £50 to £140.0

            Bath re-enamalling is quite a specialist trade and the more specialist a trade, the more you should expect to pay. It certainly is cheaper than replacing the bath which is always an option.Eat vegetables and fear no creditors, rather than eat duck and hide.0
