Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Bath re-enamelling in Tyler's Hill, done in place
We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Our repair technicians work on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people get in touch are a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and worn patches where water runs and sits.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

What happens on the day

- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Tyler's Hill?
Previous coatings can fail too, peeling around the waste or bubbling. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Wear marks under the taps
- Several chips and rust patches
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
