How we handle bath re-enamelling in Staple Fitzpaine
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. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays, and people most frequently call us about chips and rust in more than one place and an old resurfacing that’s failing.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
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 what we repair.
Common questions in Staple Fitzpaine
Will the new finish last?
Care for it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the whole bath
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Repair dripping taps early
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Somerset and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Staple Fitzpaine as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a full day, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know about parking or access
Get a quote
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
