Bath re-enamelling in Bartestree

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Have chips seen to early
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Respect the curing time we give you

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, so limescale can’t build up.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Bartestree

Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. We work on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people contact us are a roll-top that’s seen better days and an outdated colour you’d like to change.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Bartestree questions

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Will the bath be moved?

No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes, often. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Do you come to Bartestree?

We do. We send a technician to Bartestree for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can landlords book you?

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

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

What a repair can’t fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • A bath split right through the body
  • A bath that’s rusted through
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it

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

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • How much damage there is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the whole bath

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Bartestree?

Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, with nothing wrong except the surface. The body of the bath is generally perfectly sound.

The things customers typically mention when they call are:

  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • Wear marks under the taps
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off

Questions to ask before you book

  • What prep work is covered
  • How to look after the finish
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How your room will be protected

Choosing a repair company

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a full day, tidy-up included.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know about parking or access

Related advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
