Bath re-enamelling in Burrowbridge, done in place
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Common call-outs are for a peeling or bubbling previous coating and thin, worn enamel in places, across cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

Why repair rather than replace?
If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Prices start from £350. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Burrowbridge: your questions answered
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Somerset.
How long is the bath unusable?
One day for most baths, ready the following day. We will confirm timings when we quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
What we are called out for in Burrowbridge
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, peeling around the waste or bubbling. We strip what’s failing and start again.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
Questions to ask before you book
- When it can be used again
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
