Bath Re-enamelling across Herefordshire

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Herefordshire

Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Typical jobs include brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and several chips and rust patches, in cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths.

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take most of the day, including clearing up.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  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. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the following day.

Local landmarks in Hereford

Around Hereford, we work in homes near Hereford Cathedral School, Lord Scudamore Primary Academy and Hereford Sixth Form College and the streets around them. Other local landmarks include Church of St Nicholas (under half a mile south-west) and The Stables pub (within half a mile north-east). The nearest railway station is Hereford station, about 0.6 miles north-east. A little further out are Victoria Eye Hospital (within half a mile north-west) and Black and White House Museum (within half a mile north-east). For a walk, there’s Dinedor Hill and Lugg Meadow.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas

Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

What affects the price in Herefordshire

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

  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from photos

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

If you’re in Herefordshire and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling

Enamel does not fail overnight. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Questions from Herefordshire

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you need to take the bath out?

No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes, often. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
