Bath re-enamelling in Bowridge Hill, done in place
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Our repair technicians work on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths, and common reasons people get in touch are enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and lots of chips and rust spots.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice
Bowridge Hill: your questions answered
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Usually one day, with the bath ready the day after. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
What happens next?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.
How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Never use suction bath mats
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
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.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. There is no area surcharge for Bowridge Hill. The price reflects:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Bowridge Hill. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
