Bath re-enamelling near Blackwell

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Blackwell

We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Our technicians work on pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and a bath in a colour that no longer suits.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Blackwell?

Enamel does not fail overnight. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Chips and rust in more than one place

What to look for in a quote

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What prep work is covered
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Who turns up on the day

10 questions to ask before booking

Landlord and trade work in Blackwell

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What we cannot put right

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
  • A bath that’s rusted through
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

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

Materials we repair

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

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a full day. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  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

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a bath typically involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and normally one day, with the bath ready the following day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why book with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • No extra charge for your area

Blackwell: your questions answered

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
