How we handle bath re-enamelling in Annesley Woodhouse

Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, and you can use the bath the following day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Our technicians work on cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths, and people most often call us about a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and several chips and rust patches.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a full day, tidy-up included.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Should you replace it?

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. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. 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.

What you get with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Everything repaired in place
  • No extra charge for your area

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, so limescale cannot build up.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Annesley Woodhouse

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

Common reasons people in Annesley Woodhouse contact us include:

  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • Wear marks under the taps

Our hiring checklist

What we cannot put right

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • A bath that is rusted through
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The material
  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

FAQs for Annesley Woodhouse

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

Will the new finish last?

That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Annesley Woodhouse.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Do you cover Annesley Woodhouse?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Annesley Woodhouse. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

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