What affects the price in Andersea

Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of
  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Andersea

Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Common call-outs are for an outdated colour you’d like to change and lots of chips and rust spots, on pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Andersea

The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

Clients normally contact us about:

  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a full day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Andersea as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

FAQs for Andersea

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do you cover the entire of Somerset?

The whole UK, including all of Somerset. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your TA7 postcode.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Honest limits

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Pressed steel baths
  • Cast iron baths
  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Acrylic baths
  • Basins & shower trays

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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.

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Repair or replace: which is better?

For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s also far quicker. Prices start from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
