Our hiring checklist

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Kington St Michael

Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, and you can use the bath the next day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. We work on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a coloured bath you want in white and thin, worn enamel in places.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Kington St Michael. The price reflects:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

The process

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes the best part of a day. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Repairing versus replacing in Kington St Michael

A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Why us?

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Kington St Michael: your questions answered

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

Look after it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.

Is there a smell?

Yes, while we are applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

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

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

Do you need to take the bath out?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
