Bath re-enamelling in Anderton

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Anderton?

The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

People normally call us when they notice something like this:

  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Thin, worn enamel in places

What your quote should include

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How the room is protected while they work

10 questions to ask before you book

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Anderton

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 chips and rust in more than one place and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

What a repair cannot fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up

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

Materials we repair

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

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Landlord and trade work in Anderton

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

How to care for the repair

To keep it looking its best:

  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Fix dripping taps quickly

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse off any bath products.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Questions from Anderton

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

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

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Will the new finish last?

It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.

Do you cover Anderton?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Anderton and the rest of Cheshire West and Chester. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes. We can do the inside and outside.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What happens on the day

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take the best part of a day. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
