About our bath re-enamelling in Bridge Green
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. We work on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths, and the jobs we see most are a coating lifting around the plughole and a roll-top that’s seen better days.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bridge Green
If you manage property in Bridge Green, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the whole surface with the bath left where it is. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
What you get with us
- Fixed prices from your photos
- No need to remove anything
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Rooms protected and left tidy

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Repair dripping taps early
- Store bottles off the bath
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
FAQs for Bridge Green
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.
What happens after I send photos?
You will get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Generally, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send photos.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
What happens on the day
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a full day. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
