About our bath re-enamelling in Bakersfield
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we do not cut corners on it. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and cast iron baths, and people most often call us about enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and chips and rust in more than one place.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bakersfield
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
For anyone letting property in or around Bakersfield, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- A metal bath with a through crack
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Bakersfield. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the entire bath
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What happens on the day
The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes the best part of a day. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- 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 until the next day.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
