- A bath that is rusted through
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Benderloch
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. We work on pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people get in touch are a bath in a colour that no longer suits and a peeling or bubbling previous coating.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Benderloch questions
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you come to Benderloch?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Benderloch from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
How long does re-enamelling last?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Store bottles off the bath
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Repairing versus replacing in Benderloch
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and normally a day, with the bath back in use the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

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. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

The process
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a full day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
