About our bath re-enamelling in Trunch

A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Whether it’s staining under the taps and around the waste and chips and rust in more than one place, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

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

What we work on

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

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash

If you are in Trunch and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Have chips seen to early

Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Trunch

If you manage property in Trunch, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes most of the day. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  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 until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Open a window if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Common problems we fix in Trunch

By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Resurfacing sorts them out together.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • Stains that won’t shift
  • Chips and rust in more than one place

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • If travel is included in the price
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • What aftercare is recommended

How to compare quotes

Trunch: your questions answered

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send pictures.

Do you work in Trunch?

We do. We send a technician to Trunch for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes, frequently. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
