Bath Re-enamelling in Alumwell
Full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing at your home in Alumwell, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Wear marks under the taps
Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Bath re-enamelling in Alumwell, done in place
Resurfacing renews the entire surface of the bath without a refit. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. Common call-outs are for enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and a roll-top that’s seen better days, on cast iron baths, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

When a repair is not the answer
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes the best part of a day. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to care for the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Never use suction bath mats
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, particularly with hard water, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
When to call us in Alumwell
The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Wear marks under the taps
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
Questions to ask before booking
- How soon you can use it again
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- What preparation is included
FAQs for Alumwell
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
How long does re-enamelling last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Will there be fumes?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Do you cover Alumwell?
We do. We send a technician to Alumwell for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, frequently. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
