Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Have chips seen to early
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

Repair or replace in East Huntspill?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the entire room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for East Huntspill. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the entire bath
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
For a price in East Huntspill, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
What we are called out for in East Huntspill
The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
Common reasons people in East Huntspill contact us include:
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
What to look for in a quote
- How the room is protected while they work
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- If travel is included in the price
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
Questions from East Huntspill
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Is there a smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
What happens on the day
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow most of the day, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the next day.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Clear the area around the damage
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
