Bath Re-enamelling for Rampisham homes
Bath re-enamelling for Rampisham, without a refit. Send us photos for a fixed price, then book a visit.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Fix dripping taps quickly
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, so limescale can’t build up.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
About our bath re-enamelling in Rampisham
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. We work on cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a peeling or bubbling previous coating and thin, worn enamel in places.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Rampisham: your questions answered
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Normally, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Will the new finish last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

What else we do in Rampisham
Should you replace it?
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s also far quicker. Prices start from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

When to call us in Rampisham
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
What your quote should include
- When it can be used again
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What protection goes down before work starts
- If travel is included in the price
Repairs by material
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Rampisham use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
What affects the price in Rampisham
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the entire bath
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.
What we can’t put right
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Steel that has corroded right through
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
