Bath re-enamelling near Arthursdale

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.

Bath re-enamelling in Arthursdale without replacing anything

We don’t move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. Most baths are done in one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths, and common reasons people contact us are a bath in a colour that no longer suits and stains that won’t shift.

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

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Arthursdale. The price depends on:

  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, 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 generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a full 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. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s usually ready the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

How to compare quotes

Landlord and trade work in Arthursdale

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • A bath split right through the body

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Arthursdale

  • Basins & shower trays
  • Pressed steel baths

FAQs for Arthursdale

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Is there a smell?

There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
