Bath re-enamelling for Atterton homes

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Atterton

We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. We work on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths, and common reasons people contact us are staining under the taps and around the waste and wear marks under the taps.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a full day. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know about parking or access

Repairs by material

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas

Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

Landlord and trade work in Atterton

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Atterton use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • A bath split right through the body

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Atterton?

Older baths frequently have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Resurfacing sorts them out together.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change

What your quote should include

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What prep work is covered
  • Who turns up on the day
