How we handle bath re-enamelling in South Stoke

Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths, and the jobs we see most are enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and a bath in a colour that no longer suits.

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

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

When to call us in South Stoke

Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, and only the surface is worn. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is normally as strong as ever.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
  • Several chips and rust patches

What your quote should include

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What happens if they find more damage

Choosing a repair company

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for most of the day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For a price in South Stoke, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

FAQs for South Stoke

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Will the bath be moved?

No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes, frequently. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • Steel that has corroded right through

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

  • Basins & shower trays
  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Cast iron baths
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Acrylic baths

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
