Bath re-enamelling in Blyton

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Blyton

We don’t move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It usually takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. We are frequently asked to fix an outdated colour you’d like to change and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, in acrylic baths, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Lincolnshire.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Blyton

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

For anyone letting property in or around Blyton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is normally much cheaper than replacing it, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s also far quicker. Prices start from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Blyton

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

When to call us in Blyton

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring

What your quote should include

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How the room is protected while they work

Our hiring checklist

Blyton: your questions answered

How quickly can you book me in?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

How do I book?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Can you price it without visiting?

Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Will the bath be moved?

Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a full day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

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’re paying for.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A photo taken from further back

For a price in Blyton, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
