Bath re-enamelling in Hinton St George without replacing anything

We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Hinton St George and across Somerset.

Repairing versus replacing in Hinton St George

Replacing the bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the entire surface with the bath left where it is. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

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.

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.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It usually takes most of the day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Landlord and trade work in Hinton St George

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

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.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Email us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Hinton St George, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Questions from Hinton St George

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

What happens after I send photos?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas

A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

When to call us in Hinton St George

Frequently the bath has just had decades of use. The body of the bath is typically perfectly sound.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Stains that won’t shift
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • Chips and rust in more than one place

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How soon you can use it again
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
