Bath re-enamelling at your home in Little Badminton
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. We are often asked to fix a peeling or bubbling previous coating and a coloured bath you want in white, on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops.
In a village like Little Badminton, some baths have been in for many years. If the bath is sound, bath re-enamelling gives it a new lease of life without disturbing the rest of the room.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What affects the price in Little Badminton
Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
For a price in Little Badminton, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the whole room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Replacement in Little Badminton means trades, travel and waste removal, while a repair is a single visit.
Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
What we are called out for in Little Badminton
Older baths frequently have several problems at once: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Wear marks under the taps
If you live in one of the older homes near a church such as Church of St Michael and All Angels, it may still have its original cast iron bath, which is well worth repairing or re-enamelling rather than replacing.

Little Badminton questions
Can you restore the original baths in an older house in Little Badminton?
In most cases: original pieces are often better made and harder to replace. Send photos and we’ll advise.
Will you travel to Little Badminton?
We do: small places like Little Badminton are covered as standard. Tell us if access is tricky.
Are there extra charges for Little Badminton?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.
How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Store bottles off the bath
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
