DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Great Hinton
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Great Hinton and the rest of Wiltshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
When we would advise against a repair
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Great Hinton
Hard water speeds up the wear, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
What your quote should include
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- When it can be used again
- How your room will be protected
- Who turns up on the day
Should you replace it?
A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, typically one day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Repair dripping taps early
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take the best part of a day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price
