Bath re-enamelling in Giddy Green

How it works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a full day, including clearing up.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  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

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know about parking or access

Related advice

Bath re-enamelling in Giddy Green, done in place

Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Common call-outs are for staining under the taps and around the waste and lots of chips and rust spots, on Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Giddy Green and across Dorset.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Giddy Green: your questions answered

Does the bath have to be removed?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including Giddy Green and the rest of Dorset. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Giddy Green?

Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Honest limits

We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Acrylic baths
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Cast iron baths
  • Basins & shower trays

Common problems we fix in Giddy Green

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

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
  • A roll-top that’s seen better days

Questions to ask before booking

  • What preparation is included
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How changes to the job are handled

Repairing versus replacing in Giddy Green

Replacing the bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

What you get with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Read our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Giddy Green, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
