About our bath re-enamelling in Frome
The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. It typically takes one visit, and can be used again the day after. We regularly repair cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are a peeling or bubbling previous coating and thin, worn enamel in places.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Somerset.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Frome
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Frome as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
The first few days matter most: 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 rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Frome?
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
People generally call us when they notice something like this:
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A coating lifting around the plughole

- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, generally one day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

What happens on the day
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take the best part of a day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice
Questions from Frome
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote. There is no obligation to book.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Frome. What changes the price is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Natural light rather than flash
Most customers in Frome get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What a repair can’t fix
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
