How we handle bath re-enamelling in Belsize

Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. We’re frequently asked to fix staining under the taps and around the waste and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, across pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and cast iron baths.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

Landlord and trade work in Belsize

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

For anyone letting property in or around Belsize, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Belsize

Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Stains that won’t shift
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • A coloured bath you want in white

Before booking anyone

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Who turns up on the day

Choosing a repair company

Should you replace it?

A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the entire surface without moving it. Prices start from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why Belsize clients choose us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Questions from Belsize

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

How long will the bath be out of use?

One day for most baths, ready the following day. We give you timings with the quote.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes. We can do the inside and outside.

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Fix dripping taps quickly

Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • A bath that’s rusted through
  • A bath split right through the body
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Belsize. What changes the price is:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The colour and finish to match

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes most of the day.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
