Should you replace it?

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Bath re-enamelling in South Newington without replacing anything
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. We are frequently asked to fix a coating lifting around the plughole and worn patches where water runs and sits, in cast iron baths, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

How it works
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It normally takes most of the day, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Common problems we fix in South Newington
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in South Newington
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Normally one day, with the bath ready the next day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Do you come to South Newington?
We do. We send a technician to South Newington for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Are there extra charges for South Newington?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Landlords, agents and businesses in South Newington
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Store bottles off the bath
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.

What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
