How we handle bath re-enamelling in Medstead
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we do not cut corners on it. If you’re dealing with a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and several chips and rust patches, we can typically put it right, on Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and cast iron baths alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes most of the day. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s typically ready the next day.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Landlord and trade work in Medstead
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
For anyone letting property in or around Medstead, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
FAQs for Medstead
Are there extra charges for Medstead?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. Inside and out.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Normally one day, with the bath ready the next day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Typically, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Have chips seen to early
- Store bottles off the bath
- Respect the curing time we give you
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Repairing versus replacing in Medstead
Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing renews the whole surface with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
