About our bath re-enamelling in Dunford Bridge
We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Typical jobs include brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and thin, worn enamel in places, on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

FAQs for Dunford Bridge
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside.
Will there be fumes?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Usually, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send pictures.
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
How the visit works
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes the best part of a day, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
When to call us in Dunford Bridge
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, lifting by the plughole or blistering. We strip what’s failing and start again.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
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 is what we repair.
Landlord and trade work in Dunford Bridge
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Repairing versus replacing in Dunford Bridge
A new 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 with the bath left where it is. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
What you get with us
