Bath re-enamelling in East Somerton without replacing anything
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, with the bath ready to use the following day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. We regularly repair acrylic baths, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths, and people most often call us about a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops

Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Have chips seen to early
- Never use suction bath mats
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
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 any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
What affects the price in East Somerton
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A picture taken from further back
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.
East Somerton questions
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.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. Inside and out.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
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’s the part we put right.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and generally a day. Prices start from £350. 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.

How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It generally takes a full day, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s typically ready the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Get a quote
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
