A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • A bath that’s rusted through

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

  • Acrylic baths
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Victorian roll-tops

  • Pressed steel baths

About our bath re-enamelling in Stoke St Gregory

Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Whether it’s an old resurfacing that’s failing and staining under the taps and around the waste, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes most of the day. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can normally be used the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to get a price

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Fix dripping taps quickly

Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

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

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Stoke St Gregory?

Previous coatings can fail too, peeling around the waste or bubbling. We strip what’s failing and start again.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it

Questions to ask before booking

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Aftercare advice

How to compare quotes

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your photos

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material

If you’re in Stoke St Gregory and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.

Questions from Stoke St Gregory

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do you come to Stoke St Gregory?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Stoke St Gregory and the rest of Somerset. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

Generally, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

How long does re-enamelling last?

A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Repairing versus replacing in Stoke St Gregory

Replacing the bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing renews the whole surface without moving it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
