Bath re-enamelling in Exton, done in place

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Whether it’s several chips and rust patches and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, we can help.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Exton and across Somerset.

Why repair rather than replace?

For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why us?

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Everything repaired in place
  • No extra charge for your area
  • A fixed quote before you book

Read our pricing or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Somerset and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Questions from Exton

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

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.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

What a repair can’t fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A bath split right through the body
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Holes rusted through the metal

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Exton?

By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.

People generally call us when they notice something like this:

  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough

Before you book anyone

Choosing a repair company

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.

The process

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a full day. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
