About our bath re-enamelling in Benwick

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Typical jobs include an outdated colour you’d like to change and worn patches where water runs and sits, in cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is

Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Respect the curing time we give you

Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.

Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, typically one day, and the bath is usable the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Benwick. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • We leave the room as we found it

  • No need to remove anything

Common problems we fix in Benwick

In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.

Look out for these signs:

  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • Several chips and rust patches
  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • Wear marks under the taps

What to look for in a quote

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes the best part of a day. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
