Bath re-enamelling at your home in Guildtown

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. Our repair technicians work on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths, and people most frequently call us about stains that won’t shift and a peeling or bubbling previous coating.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

10 questions to ask before booking

What bath re-enamelling costs

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

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Guildtown. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash

Different materials, different repairs

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • A bath split right through the body
  • A bath that is rusted through

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Guildtown

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a full day, tidy-up included.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear the area around the damage

FAQs for Guildtown

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes, frequently. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.

Do you need to take the bath out?

No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.

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