How we handle bath re-enamelling in Maer

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

What else we do in Maer
Common problems we fix in Maer
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Several chips and rust patches

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It normally takes the best part of a day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Related advice
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Maer
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
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.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote. You are under no obligation.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Maer as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Repairing versus replacing in Maer
Replacing a bath generally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and usually one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
What you get with us
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Rooms protected and left tidy

What affects the price in Maer
Prices start from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many areas need work
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Something in shot to show the size
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
When we’d advise against a repair
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- A bath that is rusted through
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
