What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- Holes rusted through the metal
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Rimpton questions
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Are there extra charges for Rimpton?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Somerset, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, often. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Rimpton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Most clients in Rimpton get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Rimpton?
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
Comparing quotes
- Whether they match the colour on site
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use 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 it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Landlord and trade work in Rimpton
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Rimpton as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What happens on the day
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes the best part of a day. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the following day.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Ask for a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
