You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • A roll-top that is seen better days

How to compare quotes

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Beltinge

Resurfacing renews the entire surface of the bath without a refit. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. We are frequently asked to fix an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and staining under the taps and around the waste, in cast iron baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Beltinge as everywhere else we work.

Repairs by material

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Roll-top and period baths

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a full day. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice

Landlord and trade work in Beltinge

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.

For anyone letting property in or around Beltinge, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, so limescale can’t build up.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Beltinge: your questions answered

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes, frequently. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Do you work in Beltinge?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Beltinge from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is there a smell?

Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Will the new finish last?

It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.

Honest limits

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • A bath that’s rusted through
  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Why repair rather than replace?

A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and usually one day, with the bath ready the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What you get with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
