About our bath re-enamelling in Woodside
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. Our technicians work on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are a roll-top that’s seen better days and wear marks under the taps.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Steel that has corroded right through
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, a professional repair is worth it.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
