Bath Re-enamelling for Ashleworth homes
Bath re-enamelling for Ashleworth, without a refit. Get a fixed quote from your pictures, then we come to you.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Bath re-enamelling in Ashleworth without replacing anything
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Common call-outs are for stains that won’t shift and a roll-top that’s seen better days, in basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What happens on the day
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take most of the day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the following day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What else we do in Ashleworth
Ashleworth: your questions answered
Do you cover the entire of Gloucestershire?
Everywhere in the UK, Ashleworth included. Travel is included in the price.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Are there extra charges for Ashleworth?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Repair dripping taps early
- Get any chip repaired quickly
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
What affects the price in Ashleworth
Prices start from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Ashleworth. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from photos
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
If you are in Ashleworth and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
