Bath re-enamelling in Redland, done in place
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, re-enamelling is typically the most cost-effective option. There’s no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. Whether it’s lots of chips and rust spots and stains that won’t shift, we can help, on Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and cast iron baths alike.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What a repair can’t fix
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- Details of any past repairs
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
What else we do in Redland
Redland: your questions answered
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Does re-enamelling smell?
A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do you cover the whole of Bristol?
We work UK-wide, so Redland is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
The process
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take most of the day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.
What we’re called out for in Redland
Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, normally first under the taps and around the waste.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
What your quote should include
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Who will actually do the work
