Bath re-enamelling in Merrivale, done in place
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Our repair technicians work on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are staining under the taps and around the waste and a roll-top that’s seen better days.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing renews the whole surface without moving it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Merrivale. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why book with us
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- No need to remove anything
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Do you come to Merrivale?
We do. We send a technician to Merrivale for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Will there be fumes?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do you cover the entire of Herefordshire?
We cover the whole UK, including Merrivale and the rest of Herefordshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Common problems we fix in Merrivale
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Thin, worn enamel in places

If you manage property in Merrivale, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.
How the visit works
We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes the best part of a day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

When a repair isn’t the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
