Bath Re-enamelling in Coombe Dingle
Bath re-enamelling in and around Coombe Dingle: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Repair dripping taps early
- Get any chip repaired quickly
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Bath re-enamelling in Coombe Dingle without replacing anything
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. Common call-outs are for a coloured bath you want in white and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, in basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Bristol.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Landlord and trade work in Coombe Dingle
If you manage property in Coombe Dingle, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Coombe Dingle questions
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
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 a repair can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops

Repairing versus replacing in Coombe Dingle
Replacing the bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the entire surface without moving it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

What happens on the day
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take the best part of a day.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for a price
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your BS9 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Coombe Dingle?
The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
What to look for in a quote

- When it can be used again
- Who turns up on the day
