Bath re-enamelling in Horfield, done in place
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. We work on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths, and common reasons people get in touch are an old resurfacing that’s failing and a coloured bath you want in white.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What we’re called out for in Horfield

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Several chips and rust patches
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- Wear marks under the taps
- An outdated colour you’d like to change

Why repair rather than replace?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is normally much cheaper than replacing it, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Take a look at our full price list and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, so limescale can’t build up.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Horfield
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Will there be fumes?
A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- The type of damage
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your BS7 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes the best part of a day. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
How to get a price
If you’re in Horfield and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
What a repair can’t fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
