Bath re-enamelling in Braco

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Braco

We do not move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. Most baths are done in one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. If you’re dealing with enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and worn patches where water runs and sits, we can help.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

Braco: your questions answered

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Will the bath be moved?

Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

Usually, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send photos.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

Are there extra charges for Braco?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Common problems we fix in Braco

The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How the colour is matched
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What protection goes down before work starts

How to compare quotes

How to care for the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath

Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • One picture of the whole bath
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any details about the material

Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your FK15 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

When a repair is not the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A bath split right through the body
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

For landlords and businesses

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.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes most of the day for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
