Bath re-enamelling near Longbridge Deverill

Can I fix it myself?

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.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

About our bath re-enamelling in Longbridge Deverill

Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. We work on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and cast iron baths, and people most frequently call us about a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Wiltshire.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Longbridge Deverill

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do you come to Longbridge Deverill?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Longbridge Deverill and the rest of Wiltshire. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

When we’d advise against a repair

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • A bath split right through the body
  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
  • Holes rusted through the metal

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

How it works

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes the best part of a day, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s usually ready the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for 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 we will come back with a fixed figure.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Most clients in Longbridge Deverill get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Longbridge Deverill

By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Resurfacing sorts them out together.

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

  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • Thin, worn enamel in places

What to look for in a quote

  • Aftercare advice
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How your room will be protected
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace: which is better?

Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Usually one visit, start to finish

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

How to care for the repair

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away

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

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
