Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a bath usually involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Bradworthy

Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Our technicians work on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths, and people most often call us about a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and a bath in a colour that no longer suits.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Bradworthy?

A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.

Look out for these signs:

  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • An old resurfacing that is failing
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Who will actually do the work

Our hiring checklist

What we cannot put right

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • A bath that’s rusted through

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

Surfaces we repair

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

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes the best part of a day. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

How to look after the repair

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Have chips seen to early
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away

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.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Common questions in Bradworthy

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Will there be fumes?

A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

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

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bradworthy

If you manage property in Bradworthy, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Devon and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
