Repairs by material

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Beulah

Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. We are frequently asked to fix a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, on pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and acrylic baths.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

Common problems we fix in Beulah

Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, lifting by the plughole or blistering. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Several chips and rust patches
  • Stains that won’t shift
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it

Before you book anyone

  • How long it needs to cure
  • How to look after the finish
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Our hiring checklist

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface

Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

Landlord and trade work in Beulah

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes the best part of a day. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s generally ready the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
