Bath re-enamelling at your home in Sea Mills
The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. Most baths are done in one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and acrylic baths, and common reasons people get in touch are worn patches where water runs and sits and a coating lifting around the plughole.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

How it works
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a full day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Sea Mills questions
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
How long does re-enamelling last?
Look after it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
When to call us in Sea Mills
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
Look out for these signs:
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
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 photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Sea Mills, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
