Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Booth

Do the materials smell?

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

How long does re-enamelling take?

One day for most baths, ready the following day. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.

Care for it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Bath re-enamelling in Booth without replacing anything

Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. Our technicians work on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays, and people most often call us about enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Booth and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Why repair rather than replace?

There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

When a repair is not the answer

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • A bath split right through the body

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many areas need work

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the whole bath

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Work for landlords and builders

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.

If you manage property in Booth, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

What we do, step by step

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a full day. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Ask for a price

Most clients in Booth get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas

Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.
