Trusted bath re-enamelling in Hungerford

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes the best part of a day. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  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 until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Hungerford

When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Whether it’s a bath in a colour that no longer suits and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, we can help, on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays alike.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A bath that is rusted through

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Acrylic baths
  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Cast iron baths
  • Basins & shower trays

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple:

  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Common problems we fix in Hungerford

Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough

What your quote should include

  • How the colour is matched
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What preparation is included
  • How your room will be protected

Choosing a repair company

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Prices start from £350. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
