How we handle bath re-enamelling in Stone

If your bath is sound but looks tired, resurfacing is normally the best value. There is no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. If you’re dealing with several chips and rust patches and thin, worn enamel in places, we can help, on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths alike.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Repair dripping taps early

Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Stone

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing usually wins. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why Stone customers choose us

  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Colour-matched on site

Take a look at our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

The process

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to the best part of a day, tidy-up included.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Make sure the area is dry

How to get a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Advice

When we’d advise against a repair

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
  • A metal bath with a through crack

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

What affects the price in Stone

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The material, if you know it

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your SO45 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Stone: your questions answered

Will you leave a mess?

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

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Stone

Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.

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

  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • A roll-top that’s seen better days
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • How to look after the finish
