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 feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Branksome
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Typical jobs include thin, worn enamel in places and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, in cast iron baths, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Branksome?
Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Several chips and rust patches

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Branksome. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your DL3 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Repair or replace in Branksome?
