Bath re-enamelling in Churchdown, done in place
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. We regularly repair cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are chips and rust in more than one place and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

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.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Repair or replace: which is better?
If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Nothing else is disturbed. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How it works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a full day.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- 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 until the day after.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Churchdown questions
Will the new finish last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Typically, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send pictures.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Churchdown?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Does the bath have to be removed?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Typically one day, with the bath ready the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Have chips seen to early
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

What affects the price in Churchdown
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Churchdown. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
