How we handle bath re-enamelling in Phillack
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. Our repair technicians work on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and people most often call us about an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough.
In and around Phillack, homes are a mix of older cottages and newer houses. Older ones may still have cast iron or steel baths, which are well worth keeping, and newer ones typically have acrylic.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Common problems we fix in Phillack
Older baths frequently have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.
Most people contact us after spotting one of these:
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- Stains that won’t shift
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
For older houses around Phillack, near landmarks such as St Felicitas and St Piala's Church, an original cast iron or steel bath is worth keeping, and bath re-enamelling gives it years more use.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
