Bath re-enamelling at your home in Horton
We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Common call-outs are for an outdated colour you’d like to change and lots of chips and rust spots, on Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and cast iron baths.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A bath that’s rusted through
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through

The process
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a full day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know about parking or access

FAQs for Horton
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Will the new finish last?
Care for it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

The entire UK, including all of South Gloucestershire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.
What else we do in Horton
Different materials, different repairs
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.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
What affects the price in Horton
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your BS37 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Horton
Previous coatings can fail too, lifting by the plughole or blistering. We strip what’s failing and start again.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A coloured bath you want in white
