Bath re-enamelling in Ashchurch, done in place
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, re-enamelling is normally the most cost-effective option. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. We work on basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths, and people most often call us about an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and several chips and rust patches.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
The process
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a full day. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Will the new finish last?

Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
What we are called out for in Ashchurch
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
Look out for any of the following:
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
What your quote should include
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What prep work is covered
- How the room is protected while they work
Honest limits
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- A bath split right through the body

Repair or replace in Ashchurch?
A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the whole surface without moving it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. There is no area surcharge for Ashchurch. What changes the price is:
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Ashchurch. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
