How we handle bath re-enamelling in Welshampton
We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. If you are dealing with staining under the taps and around the waste and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, we can generally put it right, on cast iron baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays alike.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

- How many items we do on one visit

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Welshampton
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Letting agents often send us pictures 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.
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Store bottles off the bath
- Never use suction bath mats
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- A bath split right through the body
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Common questions in Welshampton
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Is there a smell?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Will the new finish last?
Care for it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
