Bath re-enamelling in Wotton

Bath re-enamelling in Wotton, done in place

Resurfacing renews the entire surface of the bath without a refit. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. If you are dealing with a peeling or bubbling previous coating and an outdated colour you’d like to change, we can usually put it right.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Wotton and across Surrey.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

When we’d advise against a repair

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • A metal bath with a through crack

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Wotton

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

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Wotton. The price reflects:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Repairing versus replacing in Wotton

Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Prices start from £350. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • No extra charge for your area
  • We leave the room as we found it

When to call us in Wotton

Hard water speeds up the wear, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • Several chips and rust patches
  • Stains that won’t shift
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping

Before you book anyone

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

Choosing a repair company

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

Wotton questions

Do you come to Wotton?

We do. We send a technician to Wotton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes, frequently. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

Can you price it without visiting?

Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Wotton included. Travel is included in the price.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

How it works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes most of the day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
