About our bath re-enamelling in Chelford
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. We’re frequently asked to fix several chips and rust patches and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, across cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Chelford questions
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you come to Chelford?
We do. Technicians travel to Chelford from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Usually, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send photos.
What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take the best part of a day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

What else we do in Chelford
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
What a repair can’t fix
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Chelford?
Previous coatings can fail too, lifting by the plughole or blistering. We strip what’s failing and start again.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- Several chips and rust patches
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
What to look for in a quote
- How long it needs to cure
- How changes to the job are handled
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
Should you replace it?
There are times replacing is better: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the whole room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing usually wins. Prices start from £350. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
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.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
