Book bath re-enamelling in Witcombe

For landlords and businesses

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Witcombe

Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths, and the jobs we see most are a coating lifting around the plughole and worn patches where water runs and sits.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath

Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Witcombe

Often the bath has just had decades of use. The body of the bath is generally perfectly sound.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • An old resurfacing that is failing
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
  • A coloured bath you want in white

Our hiring checklist

Honest limits

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Cast iron baths
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Acrylic baths
  • Basins & shower trays

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Witcombe. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your TA12 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Repairing versus replacing in Witcombe

A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the whole surface with the bath left where it is. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
