About our bath re-enamelling in Golden Hill
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Whether it’s an outdated colour you’d like to change and thin, worn enamel in places, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Bristol.

What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
The process
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes the best part of a day, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the next day.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Golden Hill

What else we do in Golden Hill
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
What you get with us
- Fixed prices from your photos
- We leave the room as we found it
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

What affects the price in Golden Hill
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A photo taken from further back
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
