How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes the best part of a day. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Raddington

We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Our repair technicians work on Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and lots of chips and rust spots.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

When we would advise against a repair

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • A bath split right through the body
  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Raddington?

Older baths frequently have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Resurfacing sorts them out together.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • Several chips and rust patches

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Who will actually do the work

How to compare quotes

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, so limescale cannot build up.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Raddington use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Questions from Raddington

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.

Does re-enamelling smell?

Yes, while we are applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.

Do you cover the whole of Somerset?

Everywhere in the UK, Raddington included. Travel is included in the price.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

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

Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Is my repair covered?

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why book with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
