Bath re-enamelling in Allaston, done in place

Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Typical jobs include wear marks under the taps and a roll-top that’s seen better days, in pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

What we can’t put right

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

  • Cast iron baths
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Acrylic baths

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Allaston

Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • Wear marks under the taps

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Allaston: your questions answered

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Will there be fumes?

There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Do you need to take the bath out?

No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple:

  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Respect the curing time we give you

The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes the best part of a day for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
