Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
Bath re-enamelling in Canon Frome without replacing anything
We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. If you’re dealing with a peeling or bubbling previous coating and an outdated colour you’d like to change, we can help, on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths alike.
Somewhere as small as Canon Frome, you’ll find cottages, farmhouses and converted buildings. Some have heavy cast iron baths or tight bathrooms, and getting a bath out along a lane or up narrow stairs is hard work. Bath re-enamelling in place avoids all of that.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Bath re-enamelling around Canon Frome

What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Canon Frome, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What else we do in Canon Frome
When to call us in Canon Frome
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.

- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Stains that will not shift
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
Landlords with property near Ledbury station (about 4.8 miles south-east) use us between tenancies, so baths are repaired rather than replaced.

- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether they match the colour on site
Repair or replace: which is better?
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, usually one day. Older homes around Canon Frome may have sizes and fittings that new pieces do not match. A repair keeps the original.
Prices start from £350. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, 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.

What we do, step by step
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a full day. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use. Somewhere as small as Canon Frome, access is typically the main thing to plan. Once we’re there, the bath re-enamelling works exactly as anywhere else.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit

Advice
What affects the price in Canon Frome
Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A photo taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes cost nothing and you’re under no obligation.

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Typically, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send pictures.
Can I get a quote without a visit?

Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Store bottles off the bath
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
