Bath re-enamelling at your home in Bedwell
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Common call-outs are for chips and rust in more than one place and a coating lifting around the plughole, on cast iron baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A bath split right through the body
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.

Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Related advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse off any bath products.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- One picture of the entire bath
- Details of any past repairs
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
What we are called out for in Bedwell
The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
Look out for these signs:
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Thin, worn enamel in places

Questions from Bedwell
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Normally, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send pictures.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.
Are there extra charges for Bedwell?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
