How we handle bath re-enamelling in Bliss Gate
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, and you can use the bath the day after. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. We regularly repair acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people contact us are several chips and rust patches and a peeling or bubbling previous coating.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Repair or replace in Bliss Gate?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and usually a day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why us?
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- A fixed quote before booking

Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- A bath split right through the body
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair

Common problems we fix in Bliss Gate
The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
Common reasons people in Bliss Gate contact us are:
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- A coating lifting around the plughole
What your quote should include
- When it can be used again
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How your room will be protected
How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Common questions in Bliss Gate
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Normally, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send pictures.
Will there be fumes?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. Inside and out.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Bliss Gate.
How long does re-enamelling last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.

- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
