Bath re-enamelling at your home in Ampney Crucis
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and acrylic baths, and people most often call us about several chips and rust patches and wear marks under the taps.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Ampney Crucis. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
What you get with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish

How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Never use suction bath mats
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

What else we do in Ampney Crucis
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes a full day, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s usually ready the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
