Bath re-enamelling in Kerridge-end, 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 basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths, and people most often call us about lots of chips and rust spots and thin, worn enamel in places.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- One picture of the entire bath
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Kerridge-end: your questions answered
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Kerridge-end included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Will there be fumes?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What we cannot put right
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A metal bath with a through crack
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the whole surface without moving it. Prices start from £350. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Kerridge-end?
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
Clients usually contact us about:
- A coloured bath you want in white
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- Chips and rust in more than one place
