Bath Re-enamelling in Dorridge
Full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing at your home in Dorridge, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- Fix dripping taps quickly
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Bath re-enamelling in Dorridge, done in place
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. Typical jobs include wear marks under the taps and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Repairs by material
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
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.
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Dorridge as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Dorridge: your questions answered
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Will the new finish last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Will the bath be moved?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Typically, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
The process
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take the best part of a day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
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.
When to call us in Dorridge
Often the bath has just had decades of use, with nothing wrong except the surface. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is usually as strong as ever.
People normally call us when they notice something like this:
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
