Bath re-enamelling for Bickerton homes

Bickerton questions

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Will the bath be moved?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Bath re-enamelling in Bickerton without replacing anything

The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It typically takes one visit, and can be used again the next day. We work on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and cast iron baths, and people most frequently call us about an old resurfacing that’s failing and chips and rust in more than one place.

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

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
  • Store bottles off the bath

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

Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Bickerton

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
  • Lots of chips and rust spots

Before booking anyone

  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How to care for the finish
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Choosing a repair company

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bickerton use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

For anyone letting property in or around Bickerton, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

What affects the price in Bickerton

Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

The process

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take the best part of a day, including clearing up.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Repairs by material

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
  • Steel that has corroded right through

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

There are times replacing is better: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the entire room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing generally wins. Prices start from £350. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
