Bath re-enamelling at your home in Chelvey
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. Common call-outs are for lots of chips and rust spots and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, on pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in North Somerset.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Chelvey. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A photo taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes most of the day for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- The bath is left to cure and can generally be used the following day.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for a price
Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Chelvey, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Respect the curing time we give you
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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, it’s worth having it done properly.
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Should you replace it?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Prices start from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Chelvey
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
How long does re-enamelling last?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Will the bath be moved?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Do you work in Chelvey?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Chelvey. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How long is the bath unusable?
Typically one day, with the bath ready the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
