Bath re-enamelling in Bedminster Down without replacing anything
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, with the bath ready to use the following day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. If you are dealing with a coating lifting around the plughole and chips and rust in more than one place, we can help.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

When a repair is not the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 is not prepared the repair won’t last.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Landlord and trade work in Bedminster Down
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bedminster Down use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Repair dripping taps early
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

Advice
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
