Bath re-enamelling in Branton Green

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Do not use the bath until it has fully cured

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

Bath re-enamelling in Branton Green without replacing anything

After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we do not cut corners on it. Common call-outs are for a peeling or bubbling previous coating and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, across basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What affects the price in Branton Green

Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:

  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Repairs by material

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes most of the 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. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Related advice

Should you replace it?

Replacing a bath normally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and generally one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • No need to remove anything

Read our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Branton Green?

In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.

  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
  • A coloured bath you want in white

What to look for in a quote

Common questions in Branton Green

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • A bath split right through the body
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot

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