Bath re-enamelling in Boorley Green, done in place

We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we don’t cut corners on it. Our repair technicians work on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are worn patches where water runs and sits and lots of chips and rust spots.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

What your bath is made of matters

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a full day, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  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 several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

When a repair isn’t the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A bath that is rusted through
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through

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

The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How much damage there is
  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
