Bath re-enamelling in Abbey Dore, done in place
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Whether it’s a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, we can normally put it right, on cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths alike.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Abbey Dore and across Herefordshire.

Questions from Abbey Dore
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
How long is the bath unusable?
Generally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Abbey Dore?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.

Advice
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Fix dripping taps quickly
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Abbey Dore
Hard water speeds up the wear, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- A coloured bath you want in white
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
Questions to ask before booking
- How long it needs to cure
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
