Trusted bath re-enamelling in Adbolton

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

About our bath re-enamelling in Adbolton

Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, with the bath ready to use the following day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. We work on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are staining under the taps and around the waste and a coloured bath you want in white.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.

Our hiring checklist

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes most of the day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

What a repair can’t fix

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • A bath that is rusted through
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Adbolton use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Questions from Adbolton

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Will the bath be moved?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes. We can do the inside and outside.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Adbolton?

Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the whole surface with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

What you get with us

  • A fixed quote before you book
