Bath re-enamelling at your home in Bruisyard
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. We work on Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people contact us are a bath in a colour that no longer suits and an old resurfacing that’s failing.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Common questions in Bruisyard
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Normally, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
Will there be fumes?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the entire room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.

Common problems we fix in Bruisyard
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Several chips and rust patches
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Bruisyard
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
For anyone letting property in or around Bruisyard, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
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.
