Bath Re-enamelling for Silton homes
Local bath re-enamelling for Silton: a fixed quote from pictures, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Avoid suction-cup mats
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse off any bath products.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
About our bath re-enamelling in Silton
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. Our technicians work on Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths, and the jobs we see most are chips and rust in more than one place and wear marks under the taps.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Repairing versus replacing in Silton
Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Prices start from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Why us?
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- A fixed quote before booking
- Work done at your home or business

How it works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a full day. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- 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.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
Getting ready for the visit

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.

Will there be a smell?

How long does re-enamelling last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Silton use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
When to call us in Silton
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
