How the visit works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take the best part of a day, tidy-up included.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the following day.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Butcombe, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Advice
Bath re-enamelling in Butcombe without replacing anything
Resurfacing renews the entire surface of the bath without taking anything out. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. Common call-outs are for a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, across Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What we can’t put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Holes rusted through the metal
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

- Pressed steel baths

What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
Should you replace it?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing renews the entire surface with the bath left where it is. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
