FAQs for Bac

Will there be fumes?

Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

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

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Bath re-enamelling in Bac, done in place

We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. Whether it’s an outdated colour you’d like to change and stains that won’t shift, we can help, whatever the material.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

What we can’t put right

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Different materials, different repairs

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.

Roll-top and period baths

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

What we’re called out for in Bac

Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, peeling around the waste or bubbling. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • An old resurfacing that is failing
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits

What your quote should include

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How long it needs to cure
  • How the colour is matched
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

How to compare quotes

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow the best part of a day. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for 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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Repairing versus replacing in Bac

When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Nothing else is disturbed. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why book with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • One visit for most repairs
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

See our full price list and bath cost comparison.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it

Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Where you are, by postcode

Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Bac, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
