Bath re-enamelling at your home in St Jude's
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without taking anything out. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. We’re often asked to fix a bath in a colour that no longer suits and worn patches where water runs and sits, across acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Get any chip repaired quickly
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
When we’d advise against a repair
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Holes rusted through the metal
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
If you are in St Jude's and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Common questions in St Jude's
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
Will there be fumes?
Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
What areas do you cover?
The whole UK, including all of Bristol. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.
How long does re-enamelling last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for the best part of a day. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
