Trusted bath re-enamelling in Baschurch

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Baschurch

We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and an old resurfacing that’s failing.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Respect the curing time we give you

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

How the visit works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a full day.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  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. We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Repair or replace in Baschurch?

Replacing a bath normally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and generally one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Baschurch

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

Take a look at our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:

  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Honest limits

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

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • A bath that is rusted through

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Baschurch

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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.

When to call us in Baschurch

Older baths frequently have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Resurfacing sorts them out together.

The things clients usually mention when they call are:

  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Several chips and rust patches
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off

Questions to ask before you book

  • How soon you can use it again
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What prep work is covered

FAQs for Baschurch

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Baschurch?

Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
