Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in Littleworth, Gloucestershire
Bath re-enamelling in and around Littleworth: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Several chips and rust patches
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- Never use suction bath mats
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Bath re-enamelling in Littleworth without replacing anything
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. Our repair technicians work on basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are a peeling or bubbling previous coating and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Gloucestershire.

When a repair is not the answer
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it

What affects the price in Littleworth
Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
If you’re in Littleworth and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
What we do, step by step
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take the best part of a day. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Ensure the area is dry

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
