Bath re-enamelling in Tunley, done in place
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. We’re often asked to fix brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and thin, worn enamel in places, in basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Bath and North East Somerset.

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Repair dripping taps early
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Tunley
Frequently the bath has just had decades of use. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is normally as strong as ever.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Lots of chips and rust spots
Before booking anyone
- How the colour is matched
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

What a repair can’t fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

How it works
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes the best part of a day, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the following day.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

FAQs for Tunley
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repair or replace in Tunley?

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
If you manage property in Tunley, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
