How we handle bath re-enamelling in Bristol
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, with the bath ready to use the following day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths, and people most often call us about worn patches where water runs and sits and an outdated colour you’d like to change.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Bristol as everywhere else we work.
Repairing versus replacing in Bristol
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is typically much cheaper than replacing it, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s also far quicker. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.
What you get with us
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- No extra charge for your area
- Work done at your home or business

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
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.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
What we do, step by step
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes most of the day, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Bristol questions
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Most baths are done in a day, ready the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, frequently. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Bristol?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
- How much damage there is
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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
Upload pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your BS5 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Bristol?
Enamel does not fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.
Look out for these signs:
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Several chips and rust patches
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
Before you book anyone
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How to look after the finish
- If travel is included in the price
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
