How to care for the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Store bottles off the bath

Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Seend

After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, and we take our time over it. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and acrylic baths, and people most frequently call us about a bath in a colour that no longer suits and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Seend

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

Look after it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.

Landlord and trade work in Seend

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Seend use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The material
  • Access to the area
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit

Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to get a fixed quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • Any details about the material

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Seend?

Hard water speeds up the wear, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Stains that won’t shift
  • Lots of chips and rust spots

Before you book anyone

  • How long it needs to cure
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Our hiring checklist

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly. 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. 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 until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a bath normally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and typically one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
