How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for most of the day from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice
Bath re-enamelling in Rheola, done in place
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we do not cut corners on it. Whether it’s a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and worn patches where water runs and sits, we can help, whatever the material.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.
When to call us in Rheola
Previous coatings can fail too, peeling around the waste or bubbling. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Several chips and rust patches
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the price covers travel
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What aftercare is recommended
Repairing versus replacing in Rheola
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Prices start from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Rheola. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why Rheola clients choose us
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- We leave the room as we found it
- A fixed quote before booking
- Nothing taken out or refitted

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Rheola
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Do you work in Rheola?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Rheola for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Does re-enamelling smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
