Bath re-enamelling in Sparsholt without replacing anything

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. We work on Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths, and the jobs we see most are worn patches where water runs and sits and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes the best part of a day, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Doing more than one item at once

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath

For a price in Sparsholt, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What we are called out for in Sparsholt

Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.

Customers typically contact us about:

  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • Chips and rust in more than one place

What to look for in a quote

  • Aftercare advice
  • How your room will be protected
  • How long it needs to cure
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Our hiring checklist

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • A bath that’s rusted through

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we work on in Sparsholt

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

Different materials, different repairs

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the whole surface without moving it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Store bottles off the bath

The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

Sparsholt questions

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

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

How long does re-enamelling last?

Look after it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.

How long does re-enamelling take?

Usually a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Will the bath be moved?

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

Landlord and trade work in Sparsholt

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Sparsholt 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.
