How we handle bath re-enamelling in Brackenthwaite

After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Typical jobs include a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and a coloured bath you want in white, in acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Common problems we fix in Brackenthwaite

Older baths often have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Resurfacing sorts them out together.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change

What your quote should include

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Choosing a repair company

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Brackenthwaite, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

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.

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Questions from Brackenthwaite

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.

Do you work in Brackenthwaite?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Brackenthwaite. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • A bath that’s rusted through

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

What we work on

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

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Brackenthwaite. The price comes down to:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

The process

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a full day, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Ask for a price

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
