Should you replace it?

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. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Typically one visit, start to finish

See our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Bath re-enamelling in Barton Turn, done in place

Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. We work on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths, and people most frequently call us about worn patches where water runs and sits and a coating lifting around the plughole.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Staffordshire.

Questions from Barton Turn

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes. Inside and out.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

What areas do you cover?

All of Staffordshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Do I need to be at home?

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

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Will the bath be moved?

Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Barton Turn?

Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, typically first under the taps and around the waste.

Common reasons people in Barton Turn contact us are:

  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping

Before booking anyone

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Aftercare advice
  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

10 questions to ask before you book

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes most of the day. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.

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.

What affects the price in Barton Turn

Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

When a repair is not the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A bath that’s rusted through
  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
