Bath re-enamelling in Odcombe without replacing anything

Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, with the bath ready to use the following day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. We work on pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and acrylic baths, and common reasons people contact us are a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and several chips and rust patches.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

If you manage property in Odcombe, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow most of the day, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice

What affects the price in Odcombe

Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

FAQs for Odcombe

Do you come to Odcombe?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Odcombe. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

Typically, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

How long does re-enamelling take?

Generally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

When we would advise against a repair

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A bath split right through the body

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

  • Basins & shower trays
  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Acrylic baths
  • Cast iron baths
  • Pressed steel baths

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Odcombe

Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.

Clients typically contact us about:

  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Several chips and rust patches
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it

Before you book anyone

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

How to compare quotes

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Prices start from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Fixed prices from your photos

How to care for the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Have chips seen to early
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • 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.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
