Bath re-enamelling for Birkholme homes

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Birkholme

Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, and you can use the bath the day after. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. We work on Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and cast iron baths, and common reasons people get in touch are wear marks under the taps and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Birkholme and across Lincolnshire.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Common problems we fix in Birkholme

Previous coatings can fail too, peeling around the waste or bubbling. We strip what’s failing and start again.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • Stains that won’t shift
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits

What your quote should include

  • Who turns up on the day
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What happens if they find more damage

Choosing a repair company

What we can’t put right

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Holes rusted through the metal

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Birkholme

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

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a full day. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can normally be used the day after.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Ask for a price

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

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
