How bath re-enamelling works in Bracknell Forest

Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Typical jobs include thin, worn enamel in places and chips and rust in more than one place, on Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and cast iron baths.

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes most of the day, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

Repairing versus replacing

If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is generally much cheaper than replacing it, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too.

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

Common problems we fix in Bracknell Forest

Often the bath has just had decades of use, with nothing wrong except the surface. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is typically as strong as ever.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The type of damage
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode

For a price in Bracknell Forest, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • A bath split right through the body
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Bracknell Forest

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is there any odour?

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

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

Typically, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Will there be fumes?

There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

How long does re-enamelling take?

Normally one day, with the bath ready the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
