Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Repair dripping taps early

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

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

About our bath re-enamelling in Borestone

Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. We work on cast iron baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are a bath in a colour that no longer suits and lots of chips and rust spots.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What affects the price in Borestone

Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What kind of damage it is

Rather than charging by the hour, 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.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

When we’d advise against a repair

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • A metal bath with a through crack

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we work on in Borestone

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

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It usually takes the best part of a day, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Make sure the area is dry

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Borestone

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is there a smell?

Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Landlord and trade work in Borestone

For anyone letting property in or around Borestone, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

Rental properties take more wear, 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.

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. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

Roll-top and period baths

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 normally the cheaper route.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

Repair or replace in Borestone?

A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the entire surface without moving it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
