Bath re-enamelling for Ash homes

Bath re-enamelling in Ash without replacing anything

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. Common call-outs are for stains that won’t shift and an old resurfacing that’s failing, in cast iron baths, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What your bath is made of matters

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

How the visit works

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take most of the day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

Most customers in Ash get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Questions from Ash

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Does the bath have to be removed?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

Repairing versus replacing in Ash

Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Prices start from £350. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why book with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • No extra charge for your area
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Respect the curing time we give you

Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • A metal bath with a through crack

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

  • Cast iron baths
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Acrylic baths
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Victorian roll-tops

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ash

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ash use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
