Trusted bath re-enamelling in Marsh

Different materials, different repairs

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Bath re-enamelling in Marsh, done in place

Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without taking anything out. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are chips and rust in more than one place and a bath in a colour that no longer suits.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Marsh as everywhere else we work.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Marsh. What changes the price is:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Marsh, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

How the visit works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to most of the day.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Marsh questions

Which areas do you work in?

Do I need to be at home?

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

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Marsh?

Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send photos.
