Bath re-enamelling for Beanacre homes

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Beanacre

Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. We are often asked to fix a coloured bath you want in white and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, across pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Beanacre

Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • Wear marks under the taps

Before booking anyone

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Who will actually do the work

10 questions to ask before booking

Repair or replace in Beanacre?

Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, normally one day, with the bath back in use the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We leave the room as we found it

See our prices page or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a full day, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s generally ready the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Beanacre, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Different materials, different repairs

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

When we would advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Beanacre: your questions answered

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

Does re-enamelling smell?

Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

How long is the bath unusable?

One day for most baths, ready the next day. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.

Do you come to Beanacre?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Beanacre and the rest of Wiltshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Will the bath be moved?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

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