How we handle bath re-enamelling in Winkton
If your bath is sound but looks tired, re-enamelling is generally the most cost-effective option. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Typical jobs include an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, in Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
When to call us in Winkton
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
Questions to ask before you book

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Winkton questions
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do you work in Winkton?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Winkton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Normally one day, with the bath ready the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
What affects the price in Winkton
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What a repair cannot fix
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- A bath that is rusted through
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

How it works
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take most of the day. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- 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.
- The bath is left to cure and can generally be used the day after.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
