Need bath re-enamelling in Berkley Marsh?

How it works

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes the best part of a day, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

What we can’t put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A bath that’s rusted through
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it

The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

Common problems we fix in Berkley Marsh

Older baths frequently have several problems at once: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating

What your quote should include

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

How long does re-enamelling last?
