Need bath re-enamelling in Billinghay?

The process

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes most of the day, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Billinghay

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. We are frequently asked to fix an outdated colour you’d like to change and an old resurfacing that’s failing, across pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths.

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Billinghay

Do you cover the whole of Lincolnshire?

All of Lincolnshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

How long does re-enamelling last?

A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Billinghay

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What affects the price in Billinghay

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Billinghay. The price reflects:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The colour and finish to match

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Billinghay. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Honest limits

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • A bath split right through the body
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Billinghay

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

Repair or replace in Billinghay?

A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Prices start from £350. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why us?

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Work done at your home or business

Take a look at our full price list and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Repairs by material

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. 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.

When to call us in Billinghay

Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Several chips and rust patches

What to look for in a quote

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
