Bath re-enamelling at your home in Tompkin

Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. If you’re dealing with thin, worn enamel in places and stains that won’t shift, we can help.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. There is no area surcharge for Tompkin. The price reflects:

  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Tompkin questions

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Does re-enamelling smell?

Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.

Honest limits

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • A bath that’s rusted through
  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What happens on the day

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a full 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.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Repairs by material

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.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Tompkin?

A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.

Customers normally contact us about:

  • Wear marks under the taps
  • Stains that will not shift
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change

Before you book anyone

  • Aftercare advice
  • Who will actually do the work
  • What prep work is covered
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Our hiring checklist

Why repair rather than replace?

A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • No need to remove anything
  • Usually one visit, start to finish

Take a look at our pricing and bath cost comparison.

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
