About our bath re-enamelling in Draycott
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Common call-outs are for a roll-top that’s seen better days and thin, worn enamel in places, on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Draycott
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Will there be fumes?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Do you cover the entire of Somerset?
Across the UK, and that includes Draycott. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Usually, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Common problems we fix in Draycott
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
The things clients typically mention when they call include:
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
Questions to ask before booking
- How the room is protected while they work
- If travel is included in the price
- How the colour is matched
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What we do, step by step
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take the best part of a day, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have a window or extractor fan available

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What a repair can’t fix
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Steel that has corroded right through
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up

What affects the price in Draycott
Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a bath usually involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and normally one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Draycott. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, so limescale can’t build up.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
