About our bath re-enamelling in Brampton

We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. Our technicians work on acrylic baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people contact us are an outdated colour you’d like to change and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Brampton and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a bath typically involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and typically one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What we do, step by step

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a full day, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s usually ready the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for a price

Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your S63 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Advice

Common questions in Brampton

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

Care for it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Brampton. The price comes down to:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How hard the colour is to match

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Brampton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • One picture of the whole bath
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

When a repair is not the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot

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

Materials we work on in Brampton

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

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured

Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.

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