How we handle bath re-enamelling in Old Bishton
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths. Nothing is disconnected or removed. We’re often asked to fix an outdated colour you’d like to change and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, across acrylic baths, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

The process
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a full day from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How much damage there is
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A photo taken from further back

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

How long will the bath be out of use?
Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.

Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Have chips seen to early
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Honest limits
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- A bath split right through the body
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

What we’re called out for in Old Bishton
Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, normally first under the taps and around the waste.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Wear marks under the taps
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Several chips and rust patches
What your quote should include
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- What protection goes down before work starts
