About our bath re-enamelling in Merridge
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
What affects the price in Merridge
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Merridge, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Landlord and trade work in Merridge
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
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.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A bath that’s rusted through
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Merridge?
Previous coatings can fail too, lifting by the plughole or blistering. We strip what’s failing and start again.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether the price covers travel
- What preparation is included
DIY kit or professional repair?
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 frequently lifts.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
What happens on the day
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes most of the day. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Ensure the area is dry
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
