What we are called out for in Horsington Marsh

Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.

Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:

  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
  • An old resurfacing that is failing
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring

Choosing a repair company

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Horsington Marsh

We do not move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. Most baths are done in one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. We work on basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths, and common reasons people get in touch are chips and rust in more than one place and a roll-top that’s seen better days.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Honest limits

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off

Questions from Horsington Marsh

How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Horsington Marsh?

Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your BA8 postcode.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

Typically, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

How long will the bath be out of use?

One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.

Will the new finish last?

That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Does re-enamelling smell?

There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Work for landlords and builders

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.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a full day for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the whole bath

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Repair or replace: which is better?

If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Most jobs done in one visit

Read our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, so limescale cannot build up.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
