How we handle bath re-enamelling in West Marsh
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we don’t cut corners on it. Our technicians work on acrylic baths, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths, and the jobs we see most are staining under the taps and around the waste and an old resurfacing that’s failing.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in West Marsh
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Does the bath have to be removed?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Is there a smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.
Are there extra charges for West Marsh?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a full day. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the next day.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
Advice
Repairing versus replacing in West Marsh

Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for West Marsh. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Common problems we fix in West Marsh
By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
Comparing quotes
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How the room is protected while they work
- When it can be used again
- What prep work is covered
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
