Bath re-enamelling in Compton Pauncefoot without replacing anything
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we do not cut corners on it. Whether it’s a coating lifting around the plughole and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Compton Pauncefoot
Older baths frequently have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Several chips and rust patches
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
Comparing quotes
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether the price covers travel
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- How soon you can use it again
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Never use suction bath mats
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Repair dripping taps early
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
FAQs for Compton Pauncefoot
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, frequently. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Is there a smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Compton Pauncefoot
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
When we’d advise against a repair
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- A bath that’s rusted through
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
What we do, step by step
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes the best part of a day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Ensure the area is dry
