How we handle bath re-enamelling in Bell Green
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Our technicians work on pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and a peeling or bubbling previous coating.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Bell Green as everywhere else we work.

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
What we cannot put right
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- A bath split right through the body
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes most of the day, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

Advice
FAQs for Bell Green
Are there extra charges for Bell Green?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Generally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, often. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Do you come to Bell Green?
We do. Technicians travel to Bell Green from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

For anyone letting property in or around Bell Green, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
