- Resurfacing from £350

The process
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take most of the day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Get any chip repaired quickly
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Ashcombe
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Will the bath be moved?
No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Are there extra charges for Ashcombe?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do you come to Ashcombe?
We do. We send a technician to Ashcombe for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
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.

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Ashcombe. The price reflects:
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
