About our bath re-enamelling in Gussage St Michael
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. Whether it’s staining under the taps and around the waste and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, we can help, whatever the material.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
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.
How it works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take most of the day.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price
If you’re in Gussage St Michael and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Advice
What a repair cannot fix
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A bath split right through the body
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we work on in Gussage St Michael

Repairing versus replacing in Gussage St Michael
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing typically wins. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Why us?
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- No need to remove anything
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Fixed prices from your pictures

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Gussage St Michael
If you manage property in Gussage St Michael, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Gussage St Michael questions
How long is the bath unusable?
One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you need to take the bath out?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Is there a smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Gussage St Michael?
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
