Bath re-enamelling in Alpraham, done in place

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. We’re frequently asked to fix an outdated colour you’d like to change and a coating lifting around the plughole, across basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cheshire West and Chester.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes the best part of a day. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  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.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Get any chip repaired quickly

A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, so limescale cannot build up.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

Common questions in Alpraham

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

Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

What happens after I send photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Are there extra charges for Alpraham?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you cover Alpraham?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Alpraham and the rest of Cheshire West and Chester. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

How we price bath re-enamelling

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

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Alpraham?

A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • A roll-top that is seen better days

What to look for in a quote

  • If travel is included in the price
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • What preparation is included
  • How soon you can use it again

10 questions to ask before you book

When we’d advise against a repair

  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through

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