The process
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take most of the day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s usually ready the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Dunsford
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, and you can use the bath the day after. Nothing is disconnected or removed. Our repair technicians work on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and chips and rust in more than one place.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Unusual colours or finishes
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Dunsford. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Landlord and trade work in Dunsford
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Repair or replace in Dunsford?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Prices start from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Get any chip repaired quickly
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
When we would advise against a repair
We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we work on in Dunsford
