How we handle bath re-enamelling in Aston-by-Stone

When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, re-enamelling is generally the most cost-effective option. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. If you are dealing with worn patches where water runs and sits and a coloured bath you want in white, we can usually put it right, on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays alike.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Aston-by-Stone and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Aston-by-Stone

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 if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Will the new finish last?

Care for it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.

Do you cover Aston-by-Stone?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Aston-by-Stone and the rest of Staffordshire. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is there a smell?

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

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Can I fix it myself?

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

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
  • Holes rusted through the metal

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Landlord and trade work in Aston-by-Stone

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Aston-by-Stone as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and typically a day, with the bath back in use the next day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

When to call us in Aston-by-Stone

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

Most people contact us when they notice one of these:

  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring

How to compare quotes

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many areas need work
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from pictures

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Aston-by-Stone, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.

How it works

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes the best part of a day, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
