About our bath re-enamelling in Winton
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, and we take our time over it. We regularly repair acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people contact us are thin, worn enamel in places and several chips and rust patches.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Winton: your questions answered
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price. You’re under no obligation.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Winton.

Honest limits
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we work on in Winton
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, so limescale can’t build up.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
