About our bath re-enamelling in Montacute
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we don’t cut corners on it. We’re often asked to fix a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and thin, worn enamel in places, on pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

Should you replace it?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and generally one day, with the bath ready the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Montacute. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Montacute?
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Lots of chips and rust spots
What your quote should include
- Aftercare advice
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What happens if they find more damage
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Montacute questions
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Montacute. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed price
Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
What we can’t put right
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Steel that has corroded right through
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
