About our bath re-enamelling in Chesterblade
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. We regularly repair cast iron baths, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths, and people most often call us about a roll-top that’s seen better days and an outdated colour you’d like to change.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a full day.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the area is dry
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Common problems we fix in Chesterblade
Often the bath has just had decades of use. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is usually as strong as ever.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Several chips and rust patches
- Stains that will not shift
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A coloured bath you want in white
Before booking anyone
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Chesterblade. What changes the price is:
- The type of damage
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the entire bath
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Chesterblade, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
