About our bath re-enamelling in Belford

We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. Whether it’s a coating lifting around the plughole and a roll-top that’s seen better days, we can help, on basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths alike.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Common questions in Belford

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Do you cover Belford?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Belford from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Can you quote from photos?

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

Will the new finish last?

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 resurface freestanding baths?

Yes, often. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a full day, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Repairing versus replacing in Belford

Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Prices start from £350. We do not 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.

Why book with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Same prices wherever you are

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

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

Can I fix it myself?

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, then guarantee it for a year.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Belford as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

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.

What we’re called out for in Belford

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it

Comparing quotes

  • How the colour is matched
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How to look after the finish
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Choosing a repair company

When we’d advise against a repair

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • A bath split right through the body
  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

What affects the price in Belford

Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Belford. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A picture taken from further back

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
