About our bath re-enamelling in Bodelva
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. There’s no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. We are often asked to fix staining under the taps and around the waste and thin, worn enamel in places, on Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and acrylic baths.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.

- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the following day.

Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Bodelva. What changes the price is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A photo taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Common questions in Bodelva
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Normally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Bodelva. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Landlord and trade work in Bodelva

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Bodelva
Frequently the bath has just had decades of use, with nothing wrong except the surface. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is generally as strong as ever.
Common reasons people in Bodelva contact us include:
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A roll-top that is seen better days
Questions to ask before booking
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- How the colour is matched
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What prep work is covered
When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
