Bath re-enamelling for Owermoigne homes

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Owermoigne

After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, and we take our time over it. Typical jobs include an old resurfacing that’s failing and lots of chips and rust spots, across cast iron baths, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What happens on the day

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a full day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

Should you replace it?

A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing renews the entire surface with the bath left where it is. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

What you get with us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Everything repaired in place
  • No extra charge for your area

See our full price list and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Honest limits

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • Steel that has corroded right through

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Owermoigne: your questions answered

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

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.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

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

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
