How we handle bath re-enamelling in Talbot Village
We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. If you are dealing with worn patches where water runs and sits and chips and rust in more than one place, we can normally put it right, on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and cast iron baths alike.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- A metal bath with a through crack
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Talbot Village
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
