Bath re-enamelling at your home in Poughill
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we don’t cut corners on it. Typical jobs include a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, across Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Poughill as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Questions from Poughill
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Poughill included. Travel is included in the price.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Poughill?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
How long does re-enamelling last?
Care for it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.

What else we do in Poughill
How it works
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes most of the day. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Poughill
Previous coatings can fail too, lifting by the plughole or blistering. We strip what’s failing and start again.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- Thin, worn enamel in places

Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Store bottles off the bath
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and normally a day, and the bath is usable the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good.
