How we handle bath re-enamelling in South Gorley
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. Our technicians work on cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths, and people most frequently call us about staining under the taps and around the waste and thin, worn enamel in places.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

How it works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a full day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- The bath is left to cure and can generally be used the following day.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Point us to the nearest place to park

When to call us in South Gorley
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- A coloured bath you want in white
Before you book anyone
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How the room is protected while they work
- When it can be used again

- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for South Gorley. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Repair dripping taps early
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Never use suction bath mats
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
