Bath re-enamelling near Battram

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Battram

A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Our technicians work on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a roll-top that’s seen better days and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Battram: your questions answered

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Do you need to take the bath out?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

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

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

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Battram.

What affects the price in Battram

Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A photo taken from further back

For a price in Battram, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes the best part of a day. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
  • A bath split right through the body
  • Steel that has corroded right through

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Have chips seen to early
  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Store bottles off the bath

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

Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

What we’re called out for in Battram

Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths dull the surface, normally first under the taps and around the waste.

People generally call us when they notice one of these:

  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • Several chips and rust patches
  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough

What to look for in a quote

  • How to care for the finish
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Choosing a repair company

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.

Roll-top and period baths

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