Cast iron and roll-top baths are worth saving. Re-enamelling brings them back to life in place — here's how it works.

## Why re-enamel rather than replace
Original cast iron baths are heavy, often built in, and hard to replace like-for-like. Re-enamelling keeps the character and the bath while giving you a fresh, bright surface.

## Done in place
Because these baths are so heavy, we prepare and re-coat them where they stand. We mask the area, rebuild chips, and apply a new enamel-look finish on-site.

## Aftercare
Give the new finish time to cure, then avoid abrasive cleaners and bath mats with suction cups that trap water, and it will stay looking new for years.
