Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in Stileway, Somerset
Local bath re-enamelling for Stileway: a fixed quote from pictures, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.
Quotes from your photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Stileway
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, and we take our time over it. If you are dealing with chips and rust in more than one place and staining under the taps and around the waste, we can help, whatever the material.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Stileway as everywhere else we work.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Common questions in Stileway
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Do you cover Stileway?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Stileway and the rest of Somerset. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Will there be fumes?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

What we do, step by step

- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Should you replace it?

Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
