About our bath re-enamelling in Wickham St Paul
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. We work on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and staining under the taps and around the waste.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Honest limits
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Wickham St Paul
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
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.
What affects the price in Wickham St Paul
Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Wickham St Paul. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
What happens on the day
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. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s usually ready the day after.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your CO9 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- Repair dripping taps early
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
