Bath Re-enamelling for Haccombe homes
Local bath re-enamelling for Haccombe: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- A roll-top that is seen better days
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Haccombe. The price depends on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- A picture taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.
Bath re-enamelling in Haccombe without replacing anything
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. We work on Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and acrylic baths, and people most frequently call us about brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

What we do, step by step
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes most of the day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice
Haccombe questions
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Will the bath be moved?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is there a smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.

Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Haccombe
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is normally as strong as ever.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Wear marks under the taps
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
Questions to ask before you book
- What prep work is covered
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How soon you can use it again
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
Landlords, agents and businesses in Haccombe
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Should you replace it?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is generally much cheaper than replacing it, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too. Prices start from £350. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
What you get with us
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
