Hinton Martell: your questions answered
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Is there a smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Hinton Martell
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. If you are dealing with an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, we can help, on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays alike.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for the best part of a day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Hinton Martell?
By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
Before booking anyone

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hinton Martell
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
