Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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 we handle bath re-enamelling in Holford
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. We work on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths, and people most frequently call us about a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and staining under the taps and around the waste.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Holford and across Somerset.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Holford
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Holford
Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Stains that will not shift
Questions to ask before you book
- Who will actually do the work
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How soon you can use it again
Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath normally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and usually one day, with the bath ready the next day. Prices start from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
