About our bath re-enamelling in Pixham

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. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are worn patches where water runs and sits and a coloured bath you want in white.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

What we can’t put right

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • A bath split right through the body
  • A bath that is rusted through

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Pixham

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Pixham. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • Any details about the material
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Pixham

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Pixham?

The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Several chips and rust patches
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough

What to look for in a quote

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How to look after the finish
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

How to look after the repair

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Repair dripping taps early

Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Questions from Pixham

How long does re-enamelling take?

Most baths are done in a day, ready the next day. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

How long does re-enamelling last?

Care for it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for the best part of a day from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
