Bath re-enamelling in Attercliffe

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Attercliffe

Resurfacing renews the entire surface of the bath without a refit. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. Our technicians work on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are thin, worn enamel in places and lots of chips and rust spots.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes the best part of a day in most cases. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice

Common problems we fix in Attercliffe

Older baths frequently have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.

The things customers normally mention when they call include:

  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough

What your quote should include

  • Aftercare advice
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

How to compare quotes

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A picture taken from further back

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Attercliffe, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Attercliffe questions

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Do you come to Attercliffe?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Attercliffe. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Does the bath have to be removed?

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

What areas do you cover?

All of Sheffield, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

What a repair cannot fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Repairs by material

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.

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.

Repair or replace in Attercliffe?

Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why book with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
