Bath re-enamelling near Braddocks Hay

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material and finish

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your ST8 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Bath re-enamelling in Braddocks Hay without replacing anything

Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, and you can use the bath the next day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Our repair technicians work on pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and acrylic baths, and common reasons people contact us are an old resurfacing that’s failing and thin, worn enamel in places.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow most of the day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How to get a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Related advice

Braddocks Hay questions

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

Do you need to take the bath out?

Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes, often. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface

Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a bath generally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and typically one day, with the bath ready the day after. Prices start from £350. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why book with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Work done at your home or business
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • We leave the room as we found it

When to call us in Braddocks Hay

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

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Several chips and rust patches
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits

Questions to ask before booking

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What happens if they find more damage

How to compare quotes

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.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off

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

What we work on

  • Acrylic baths
  • Victorian roll-tops
