About our bath re-enamelling in Pirton
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without taking anything out. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. Our repair technicians work on acrylic baths, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths, and the jobs we see most are brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and thin, worn enamel in places.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

When a repair isn’t the answer

How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the whole bath
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What we are called out for in Pirton
Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- Stains that won’t shift
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
What to look for in a quote
- Who will actually do the work
- How the room is protected while they work
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether they match the colour on site
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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.
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 is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
