Trusted bath re-enamelling in Bracebridge

Bath re-enamelling in Bracebridge, done in place

Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, with the bath ready to use the following day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. If you are dealing with worn patches where water runs and sits and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, we can typically put it right.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What your bath is made of matters

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.

Repair or replace in Bracebridge?

For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s much quicker too. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

  • No need to remove anything
  • Most jobs done in one visit

Prices and what affects them

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

  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Send pictures for a quote

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Bracebridge, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • A bath split right through the body

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Bracebridge

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

The process

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. Plan for the best part of a day. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  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. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Bracebridge

Hard water speeds up the wear, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.

People typically call us after spotting one of these:

  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • Thin, worn enamel in places

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How changes to the job are handled

Our hiring checklist

How to look after the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Bracebridge

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

How soon can you come?

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Will there be fumes?

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

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
