About our bath re-enamelling in Ash Priors

Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. Common call-outs are for a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and an outdated colour you’d like to change, on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths.

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

FAQs for Ash Priors

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Ash Priors.

Will the bath be moved?

Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.

How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Ash Priors?

Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow the best part of a day. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.

How to get a fixed price

Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Most clients in Ash Priors get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

How to care for the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath

Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse off any bath products.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

Landlord and trade work in Ash Priors

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What we are called out for in Ash Priors

Older baths often have several problems at once: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Resurfacing sorts them out together.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean

10 questions to ask before you book

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing typically wins. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

  • Same prices wherever you are
