Bath re-enamelling in Melksham, done in place
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. We work on cast iron baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people get in touch are stains that won’t shift and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Melksham and across Wiltshire.

Landlord and trade work in Melksham
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Common questions in Melksham
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Is there a smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Melksham?
Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Do you work in Melksham?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Melksham from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
