Bath Re-enamelling across Sefton

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Sefton

After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we do not cut corners on it. Common call-outs are for stains that won’t shift and chips and rust in more than one place, on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths.

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a full day.

  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. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.

Cost

Prices start from £350. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

When a repair is not the answer

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Sefton use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Hospitality businesses can’t 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.

What affects the price in Sefton

Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.

Aftercare tips

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

  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Avoid suction-cup mats

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.

Sefton questions

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Does re-enamelling smell?

Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes, often. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
