Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in Coaley, Gloucestershire
Bath re-enamelling across Coaley and nearby, done in a single visit in most cases.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Bath re-enamelling in Coaley without replacing anything
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Whether it’s a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and wear marks under the taps, we can usually put it right.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and usually a day, and the bath is usable the day after. Prices start from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Coaley: your questions answered
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
How long is the bath unusable?
One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
Will the bath be moved?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.
How long does re-enamelling last?
Look after it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Is there a smell?
A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Are there extra charges for Coaley?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Coaley?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a full day from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.
How to prepare
- Make sure the area is dry
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Open a window if you can
Ask for a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Have chips seen to early
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Never use suction bath mats
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, so limescale cannot build up.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
What affects the price in Coaley
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Coaley. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.
What we are called out for in Coaley
Enamel does not fail overnight. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, usually first under the taps and around the waste.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
