Bath Re-enamelling in Cabal
Damaged bath in Cabal? We put it right where it is, mix the colour on the day and back it with a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- Worn patches where water runs and sits

Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
Use 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. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Bath re-enamelling in Cabal without replacing anything
Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. We’re frequently asked to fix several chips and rust patches and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, across acrylic baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Cabal. The price comes down to:
- The type of damage
- How many items we do on one visit
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed price
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the whole bath
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
