Bath re-enamelling in St Michaels without replacing anything
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. If you’re dealing with a coating lifting around the plughole and lots of chips and rust spots, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Have chips seen to early
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
Instead of hourly rates, 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
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.
Repair or replace in St Michaels?
There are times replacing is better: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the entire room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing generally wins. Prices start from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in St Michaels?
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
The things clients usually mention when they call include:
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- Stains that won’t shift
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- A roll-top that is seen better days

What else we do in St Michaels
Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.

Will the new finish 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.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
How it works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a full day, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Open a window if you can
