Bath re-enamelling in Mere, done in place
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Whether it’s several chips and rust patches and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, we can normally put it right, on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops alike.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Mere and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
How it works
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a full day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Never use suction bath mats
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.
When a repair is not the answer
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A metal bath with a through crack
- A bath that is rusted through
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Mere
Do you work in Mere?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Mere from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, often. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
How long is the bath unusable?
One day for most baths, ready the next day. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Common problems we fix in Mere
Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Several chips and rust patches
What your quote should include
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether the price covers travel
