About our bath re-enamelling in Bruisyard Street
We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Whether it’s stains that won’t shift and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, we can help, whatever the material.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Questions from Bruisyard Street
Can you quote from photos?
Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff:
- Have chips seen to early
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Never use suction bath mats
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Honest limits
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A bath split right through the body
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
What happens on the day
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a full day.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
