About our bath re-enamelling in Keills
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. If you’re dealing with a coloured bath you want in white and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, we can usually put it right, on Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths alike.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Keills as everywhere else we work.

When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A bath split right through the body
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Keills
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Several chips and rust patches
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
What to look for in a quote
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- What protection goes down before work starts
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Have chips seen to early
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Respect the curing time we give you
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

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.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Keills. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
How it works
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a full day. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
