Bath re-enamelling near Auchenreoch

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Auchenreoch

Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Our technicians work on pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are a coating lifting around the plughole and an outdated colour you’d like to change.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take most of the day, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Roll-top and period baths

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

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.

Questions from Auchenreoch

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote, generally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Do you need to take the bath out?

No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Store bottles off the bath

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

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Auchenreoch

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Auchenreoch?

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • A coating lifting around the plughole

  • Who turns up on the day
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

10 questions to ask before you book

Should you replace it?

Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, usually one day, with the bath back in use the following day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • No need to remove anything
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
