About our bath re-enamelling in Wigmore
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. Our technicians work on basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths, and people most frequently call us about several chips and rust patches and stains that won’t shift.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What happens on the day
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to the best part of a day, tidy-up included.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Advice
When we’d advise against a repair
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Never use suction bath mats
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, so limescale can’t build up.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
When to call us in Wigmore
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
Common reasons people in Wigmore contact us are:
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Wigmore
Are there extra charges for Wigmore?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Wigmore included. Travel is included in the price.
Will the new finish last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Generally one day, with the bath ready the next day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

What else we do in Wigmore
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Wigmore. The price comes down to:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- A picture taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Most customers in Wigmore get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and generally one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Prices start from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
