- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- The bath is left to cure and can normally be used the following day.

Bath re-enamelling in Hawkesbury Upton, done in place
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. Our repair technicians work on Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths, and the jobs we see most are an old resurfacing that’s failing and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in South Gloucestershire.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hawkesbury Upton
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hawkesbury Upton use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- A bath that’s rusted through
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Hawkesbury Upton
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the day after. Prices start from £350. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Hawkesbury Upton: your questions answered
Does re-enamelling smell?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
How long does re-enamelling take?
One day for most baths, ready the following day. We give you timings with the quote.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Will the new finish last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Have chips seen to early
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, so limescale cannot build up.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
