About our bath re-enamelling in Southway
We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. If you are dealing with thin, worn enamel in places and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, we can help, on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops alike.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

What we are called out for in Southway
Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, usually first under the taps and around the waste.
Contact us if you’ve noticed:
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A coloured bath you want in white
- A coating lifting around the plughole

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
Common questions in Southway
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your BA5 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why us?
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- One price list for the entire UK
- One visit for most repairs
- Colour mixed on the day to match
See our prices page or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a full day. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- 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.
- 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

- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Advice
Landlords, agents and businesses in Southway
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
