- Staining under the taps and around the waste

Bath re-enamelling in Upton Magna without replacing anything
Resurfacing renews the entire surface of the bath without a refit. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. We are often asked to fix worn patches where water runs and sits and staining under the taps and around the waste, in Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes most of the day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Upton Magna
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is there a smell?
A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Get any chip repaired quickly
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
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.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. There is no area surcharge for Upton Magna. The price reflects:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
How to get a fixed price
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- What it’s made of, if you know

- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode

Repair or replace in Upton Magna?
When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Nothing else is disturbed. Prices start from £350. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
