Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale

Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

About our bath re-enamelling in Barrowby

When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, re-enamelling is typically the most cost-effective option. There is no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. We work on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops, and people most often call us about a peeling or bubbling previous coating and an outdated colour you’d like to change.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Barrowby and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Barrowby

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

Roll-top and period baths

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What bath re-enamelling costs

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

  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Every job is a little different, 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.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Most customers in Barrowby get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Common questions in Barrowby

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.

Will the new finish last?

A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send pictures.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough

How to compare quotes

How it works

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes most of the day. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  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

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
