Different materials, different repairs

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

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 the part we put right.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Wells-next-the-Sea

We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. If you are dealing with lots of chips and rust spots and an old resurfacing that’s failing, we can help.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

Wells-next-the-Sea: your questions answered

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you quote from pictures?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

Care for it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Wells-next-the-Sea. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

How it works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take the best part of a day. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Repairing versus replacing in Wells-next-the-Sea

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How to care for the repair

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface

Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
