Bath re-enamelling for Albrighton homes

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Albrighton

After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. Typical jobs include wear marks under the taps and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, in Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repairs by material

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Repairing versus replacing in Albrighton

For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s also far quicker. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Albrighton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

What we are called out for in Albrighton

Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.

Common reasons people in Albrighton contact us are:

  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring

What to look for in a quote

  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Aftercare advice
  • Who will actually do the work

How to compare quotes

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How hard the colour is to match

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • A picture taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Upload pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Albrighton, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

When we would advise against a repair

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • A bath split right through the body
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Albrighton: your questions answered

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Do you cover the entire of Shropshire?

We cover the whole UK, including Albrighton and the rest of Shropshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes the best part of a day. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
