Thrupe: your questions answered
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Will the bath be moved?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Do you cover the whole of Somerset?
The whole UK, including all of Somerset. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Somerset.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
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, and the work is guaranteed.

What we do, step by step
You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It usually takes most of the day, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- The bath is left to cure and can normally be used the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
How to get a price

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Different materials, different repairs
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.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Landlord and trade work in Thrupe
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
For anyone letting property in or around Thrupe, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
