Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Repairing versus replacing in Aldborough

When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Most customers in Aldborough get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Aldborough: your questions answered

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

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

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Aldborough included. There is no extra charge for travel.

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Is there a smell?

Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes most of the day in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Make sure the area is dry

Related advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What your bath is made of matters

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 re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Aldborough

Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.

The things clients typically mention when they call are:

  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off

What your quote should include

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What prep work is covered
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • When it can be used again
