Bath re-enamelling for Barton homes

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a full day in most cases. We leave the room clean.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can normally be used the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Bath re-enamelling in Barton, done in place

After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we do not cut corners on it. We regularly repair cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths, and common reasons people contact us are an outdated colour you’d like to change and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

  • Wear marks under the taps
  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Our hiring checklist

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Barton. The price comes down to:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Why repair rather than replace?

If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is usually much cheaper than replacing it, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s much quicker too. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Barton: your questions answered

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

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

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, so Barton is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

When a repair is not the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Barton

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

For landlords and businesses

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

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
