Advice
Bath re-enamelling in Roddam without replacing anything
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, re-enamelling is typically the most cost-effective option. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Typical jobs include lots of chips and rust spots and an outdated colour you’d like to change, across acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Roddam as everywhere else we work.

Questions from Roddam
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Will the bath be moved?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

Repairing versus replacing in Roddam
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Prices start from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
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’s the part we put right.
What we’re called out for in Roddam
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- Several chips and rust patches
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A coating lifting around the plughole
What to look for in a quote
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What preparation is included
- How long it needs to cure
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A picture taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job without visiting.
