Do you need bath re-enamelling in Dinder?

Previous coatings can fail too, peeling around the waste or bubbling. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Stains that will not shift

About our bath re-enamelling in Dinder

After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. We work on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and cast iron baths, and people most frequently call us about several chips and rust patches and thin, worn enamel in places.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Somerset.

Dinder: your questions answered

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes, frequently. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which generally takes the best part of a day. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s usually ready the day after.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to get a price

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

  • Normally one visit, start to finish

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
