Bath re-enamelling in East Ogwell, done in place
If your bath is sound but looks tired, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people get in touch are worn patches where water runs and sits and an outdated colour you’d like to change.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Repairing versus replacing in East Ogwell
There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing usually wins. Prices start from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What a repair can’t fix
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A bath split right through the body
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Steel that has corroded right through
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in East Ogwell
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
