Bath re-enamelling in Doddington, done in place
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays, and people most often call us about a peeling or bubbling previous coating and a bath in a colour that no longer suits.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Never use suction bath mats
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the entire bath
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- Steel that has corroded right through
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
Doddington questions
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Is there a smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.
Repairing versus replacing in Doddington
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Prices start from £350. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why us?
- Work done at your home or business
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Colour mixed on the day to match

When to call us in Doddington
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Thin, worn enamel in places
Before booking anyone
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What preparation is included
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
