Signs you need bath re-enamelling in St Martins

By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Resurfacing sorts them out together.

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

  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it

What your quote should include

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What prep work is covered
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Our hiring checklist

Bath re-enamelling in St Martins without replacing anything

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. We are frequently asked to fix an outdated colour you’d like to change and staining under the taps and around the waste, across cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in St Martins

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a full day from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used 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. 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

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Related advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including St Martins. The price reflects:

  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly

A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, so limescale can’t build up.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in St Martins

Will there be fumes?

Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in St Martins?

Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
