Bath re-enamelling in Doveridge, done in place
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Common call-outs are for an outdated colour you’d like to change and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, on Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and cast iron baths.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

What happens on the day
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a full 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.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Doveridge. The price reflects:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A picture taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Doveridge, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Store bottles off the bath
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
When we’d advise against a repair
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
