DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Monkton Combe
Resurfacing renews the entire surface of the bath without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and cast iron baths, and people most often call us about lots of chips and rust spots and wear marks under the taps.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

What we are called out for in Monkton Combe
Older baths often have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Resurfacing sorts them out together.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
What to look for in a quote
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How the room is protected while they work
What happens on the day
It’s a tidy, low-fuss 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 photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
How to prepare

Repair or replace in Monkton Combe?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the entire surface without moving it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Monkton Combe. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why us?
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- One visit for most repairs
- Everything repaired in place

What we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A bath that is rusted through
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

FAQs for Monkton Combe
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
How long does re-enamelling last?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
