Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
About our bath re-enamelling in Besses o' th' Barn
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Our repair technicians work on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and cast iron baths, and people most frequently call us about stains that won’t shift and wear marks under the taps.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What we can’t put right
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops

Repair or replace in Besses o' th' Barn?

Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Getting a price

Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
