- Stains that won’t shift
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.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Bath re-enamelling in Bathwick without replacing anything
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Our technicians work on acrylic baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people get in touch are several chips and rust patches and an outdated colour you’d like to change.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bathwick use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Store bottles off the bath
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Have chips seen to early
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
When to call us in Bathwick
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Thin, worn enamel in places

Bathwick: your questions answered
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Will the bath be moved?
Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Bathwick?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
What a repair cannot fix
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- A metal bath with a through crack
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair

The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes the best part of a day. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s typically ready the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Getting a price
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing renews the entire surface without moving it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Why us?
- We leave the room as we found it
- Most jobs done in one visit
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Same prices wherever you are

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
