How we handle bath re-enamelling in Alweston
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without taking anything out. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. Whether it’s a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and thin, worn enamel in places, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for the best part of a day. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- 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.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the day after.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Clear the area around the damage
- Make sure the area is dry
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Repair dripping taps early
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.
FAQs for Alweston
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Is there a smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Do you come to Alweston?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Alweston for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Honest limits
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A bath split right through the body
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Steel that has corroded right through
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Alweston

- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- Wear marks under the taps

Repair or replace in Alweston?

Read our pricing or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
