Trusted bath re-enamelling in Martock

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Martock

We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Typical jobs include lots of chips and rust spots and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, in Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and acrylic baths.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

Common questions in Martock

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

How long is the bath unusable?

Usually a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.

Can tenants book a repair?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Somerset, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Are you accredited?

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

Are there extra charges for Martock?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface

Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

What affects the price in Martock

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

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Martock. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

If you are in Martock and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

For landlords and businesses

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Martock use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • A bath that’s rusted through
  • A metal bath with a through crack

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, 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 by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can normally be used the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
