Trusted bath re-enamelling in Adwick le Street

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

Bath re-enamelling in Adwick le Street without replacing anything

We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. If you’re dealing with brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, we can generally put it right, on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

The process

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 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. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired

Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

What affects the price in Adwick le Street

Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

FAQs for Adwick le Street

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Will the bath be moved?

Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Doncaster. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.

What a repair can’t fix

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Holes rusted through the metal

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Adwick le Street?

  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off

What your quote should include
