How we handle bath re-enamelling in Cadbury Heath
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Common call-outs are for thin, worn enamel in places and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, in acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Cadbury Heath questions
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of South Gloucestershire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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, a professional repair is worth it.
Repair or replace: which is better?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is usually much cheaper than replacing it, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too. Prices start from £350. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

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 what we repair.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the entire bath
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
If you are in Cadbury Heath and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes the best part of a day. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price

What else we do in Cadbury Heath
Landlord and trade work in Cadbury Heath
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
