How we handle bath re-enamelling in Appleshaw

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Our technicians work on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths, and common reasons people contact us are a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and lots of chips and rust spots.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Appleshaw and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Appleshaw

Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.

Customers generally contact us about:

  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • A coloured bath you want in white

What your quote should include

  • How long it needs to cure
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What happens if they find more damage

Our hiring checklist

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and normally a day, with the bath back in use the next day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • No extra charge for your area
  • One visit for most repairs

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, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.

What we can’t put right

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
  • A bath split right through the body
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

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

Materials we work on in Appleshaw

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Appleshaw, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

The process

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes most of the day. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  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 day after, the bath is ready.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
