Trusted bath re-enamelling in Bidden

The process

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take most of the day. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  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 next day, the bath is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. We’re frequently asked to fix wear marks under the taps and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, on Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Bidden?

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

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • Several chips and rust patches
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send photos for a quote

Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

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’s what we repair.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A replacement often means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and generally a day. Prices start from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why book with us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Everything repaired in place
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Bidden questions

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Bidden?

Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Do you work in Bidden?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Bidden and the rest of Hampshire. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

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.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use

Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Bidden, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bidden as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
