Bath re-enamelling in Stratton St Michael without replacing anything
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Typical jobs include worn patches where water runs and sits and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, across Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Repairing versus replacing in Stratton St Michael
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Prices start from £350. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Advice
Landlords, agents and businesses in Stratton St Michael
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Stratton St Michael?
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used. The body of the bath is generally perfectly sound.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits

Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Stratton St Michael questions
Are there extra charges for Stratton St Michael?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
What affects the price in Stratton St Michael
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- A picture taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Stratton St Michael, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
