Bath re-enamelling for Binley homes

FAQs for Binley

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Do you cover Binley?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Binley and the rest of Hampshire. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

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

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

How long is the bath unusable?

Usually one day, with the bath ready the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.

How long does re-enamelling last?

It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Binley

Resurfacing renews the entire surface of the bath without a refit. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. Whether it’s a bath in a colour that no longer suits and several chips and rust patches, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Binley

Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, peeling around the waste or bubbling. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.

Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:

  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • A roll-top that is seen better days
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits

What to look for in a quote

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How your room will be protected
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Our hiring checklist

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Respect the curing time we give you

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

How it works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes the best part of a day. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Ensure the area is dry

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Related advice

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A bath split right through the body
  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we work on in Binley

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: 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. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

What affects the price in Binley

Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Binley. What changes the price is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
