Do you need bath re-enamelling in Clifton?
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A coloured bath you want in white

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Clifton
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. We regularly repair acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths, and people most often call us about a bath in a colour that no longer suits and lots of chips and rust spots.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Clifton as everywhere else we work.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A photo taken from further back
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

When a repair is not the answer
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- A metal bath with a through crack
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Clifton

Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Why repair rather than replace?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Prices start from £350. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What we do, step by step
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes most of the day. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Ensure the area is dry
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Clifton
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Most baths are done in a day, ready the following day. We give you timings with the quote.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
