After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, and we take our time over it. If you are dealing with a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and an old resurfacing that’s failing, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

Common problems we fix in Kelston
Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths dull the surface, generally first under the taps and around the waste.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- Several chips and rust patches
- Stains that will not shift

How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes most of the day in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Repairing versus replacing in Kelston
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is generally much cheaper than replacing it, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s also far quicker. Prices start from £350. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Kelston. The price depends on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
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.

Repairs by material
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.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Common questions in Kelston
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you work in Kelston?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Kelston from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
How long is the bath unusable?
Typically one day, with the bath ready the next day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
