Bath re-enamelling in Wroughton without replacing anything

After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we do not cut corners on it. Our technicians work on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and acrylic baths, and common reasons people get in touch are worn patches where water runs and sits and chips and rust in more than one place.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Swindon.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

When we would advise against a repair

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • A bath that’s rusted through

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

When to call us in Wroughton

In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • Wear marks under the taps
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing

What to look for in a quote

  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What preparation is included

Choosing a repair company

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Have chips seen to early
  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately

The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

Getting a price from photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a full day, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
