Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in Chipstable, Somerset
Bath re-enamelling in and around Chipstable: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Lots of chips and rust spots
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Chipstable
We don’t move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It normally takes one visit, and can be used again the following day. We are frequently asked to fix staining under the taps and around the waste and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, in pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Chipstable?
The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
What your quote should include
- What prep work is covered
- How soon you can use it again
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- If travel is included in the price
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Respect the curing time we give you
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A bath that’s rusted through
- A bath split right through the body
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
