About our bath re-enamelling in Bull's Green
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. If you’re dealing with lots of chips and rust spots and a roll-top that’s seen better days, we can normally put it right, on cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays alike.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, so limescale cannot build up.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

When a repair isn’t the answer
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

When to call us in Bull's Green
Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.
Contact us if you’ve noticed:
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean

Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Repair or replace: which is better?
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s also far quicker. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
