Bath re-enamelling in Brownshill, done in place

We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, and we take our time over it. We work on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people contact us are an old resurfacing that’s failing and a bath in a colour that no longer suits.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Gloucestershire.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Brownshill. The price depends on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Brownshill. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs

Most customers in Brownshill get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Repair or replace: which is better?

When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Prices start from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.

Why book with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

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 baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.

Brownshill: your questions answered

Do you need to take the bath out?

No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Is there a smell?

A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.

Are there extra charges for Brownshill?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas

Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

What we’re called out for in Brownshill

By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Resurfacing sorts them out together.

The things customers usually mention when they call include:

  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring

What your quote should include

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What preparation is included

10 questions to ask before booking

How it works

We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes most of the day, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
