Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in Ryall, Dorset
Full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing at your home in Ryall, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Wear marks under the taps
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
About our bath re-enamelling in Ryall
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. We’re frequently asked to fix thin, worn enamel in places and chips and rust in more than one place, in acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

Can I fix it myself?
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.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Ryall
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Ryall?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
How long is the bath unusable?
Typically one day, with the bath ready the next day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Generally, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
What a repair cannot fix
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- A bath that is rusted through
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- A bath split right through the body
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
What we do, step by step
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It typically takes most of the day, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- 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.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Should you replace it?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the entire surface without moving it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
