What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Bath re-enamelling in Minterne Magna, done in place
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. We regularly repair cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops, and people most frequently call us about an old resurfacing that’s failing and wear marks under the taps.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Minterne Magna and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes most of the day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the next day.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Repairing versus replacing in Minterne Magna
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing renews the entire surface with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Why us?
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK

How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, so limescale can’t build up.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

- How much damage there is

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
