Bath re-enamelling in Chilthorne Domer, done in place
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, and you can use the bath the following day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are lots of chips and rust spots and stains that won’t shift.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
The process
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a full day. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Chilthorne Domer: your questions answered
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Generally one day, with the bath ready the next day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Somerset. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Normally, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send photos.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
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.
What we can’t put right
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Chilthorne Domer
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
