Bath re-enamelling for Wadworth homes

Bath re-enamelling in Wadworth, done in place

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Typical jobs include chips and rust in more than one place and a roll-top that’s seen better days, on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and cast iron baths.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Repairing versus replacing in Wadworth

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 renews the entire surface without moving it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

When a repair isn’t the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • A bath that is rusted through
  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through

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

What we work on

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

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Do not use the bath until it has fully cured

The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

What we do, step by step

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take the best part of a day, tidy-up included.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can generally be used the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
