Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Steam Mills
Do you cover the entire of Gloucestershire?
The whole UK, including all of Gloucestershire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Steam Mills?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
How long does re-enamelling last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first.
Does re-enamelling smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.
Bath re-enamelling in Steam Mills, done in place
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. If you’re dealing with an old resurfacing that’s failing and thin, worn enamel in places, we can help.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What else we do in Steam Mills
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Steam Mills
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, and only the surface is worn. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is usually as strong as ever.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- Lots of chips and rust spots
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How changes to the job are handled
- How long it needs to cure
Repair or replace: which is better?
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s much quicker too. Prices start from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Why book with us
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Most jobs done in one visit

Repairs by material
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Covering Steam Mills

We also travel to Harrow Hill (1 mile north), Drybrook (1 mile north), Ruardean Hill (1 mile north-west), Cinderford (1 mile south-east) and Ruardean Woodside (1 mile north-west).

Honest limits
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
How the visit works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes the best part of a day. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
