Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in West Hewish, North Somerset

Should you replace it?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the entire room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
FAQs for West Hewish
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Advice
Do you need bath re-enamelling in West Hewish?
Older baths often have several problems at once: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.
The things customers typically mention when they call include:
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- Several chips and rust patches
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- A coloured bath you want in white
Questions to ask before you book
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Who turns up on the day
- What preparation is included
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Have chips seen to early
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to West Hewish. The price comes down to:
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
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.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in West Hewish use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
