About our bath re-enamelling in The Blythe
The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. Most baths are done in one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. We regularly repair acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people contact us are a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in The Blythe?
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, lifting by the plughole or blistering. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.
Look out for these signs:
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Stains that won’t shift
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Wear marks under the taps

Landlords, agents and businesses in The Blythe
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Different materials, different repairs
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 re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- A bath split right through the body
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths

How durable is a resurfaced bath?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
