Bath re-enamelling at your home in Trooper's Inn

The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. It typically takes one visit, and can be used again the following day. If you are dealing with chips and rust in more than one place and a coating lifting around the plughole, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. 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

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The material, if you know it

Most customers in Trooper's Inn get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Different materials, different repairs

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’s what we repair.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

When we would advise against a repair

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • A bath split right through the body
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in Trooper's Inn

How to care for the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Get any chip repaired quickly

A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, so limescale can’t build up.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Choosing a repair company

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes most of the day for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

How to get a price

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your SA62 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
