How we handle bath re-enamelling in Bishops Lydeard
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. Our technicians work on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths, and the jobs we see most are an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and lots of chips and rust spots.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Bishops Lydeard: your questions answered
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is there a smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
How long is the bath unusable?
One day for most baths, ready the next day. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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 often lifts.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Have chips seen to early
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

Related advice
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
What a repair cannot fix
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Steel that has corroded right through
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Bishops Lydeard
