How we handle bath re-enamelling in Bradenham

After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. We’re often asked to fix thin, worn enamel in places and chips and rust in more than one place, in Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a full day. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  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 until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

Email us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your HP14 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured

A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, so limescale can’t build up.

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

When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in Bradenham

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

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Bradenham

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

When to call us in Bradenham

A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • Thin, worn enamel in places

Questions to ask before you book

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
