Bath re-enamelling at your home in Brascote

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. If you are dealing with stains that won’t shift and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repair or replace in Brascote?

Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the entire room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What you get with us

  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Work done at your home or business
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Common problems we fix in Brascote

The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Stains that won’t shift
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • A roll-top that is seen better days
  • Chips and rust in more than one place

Questions to ask before booking

  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How long it needs to cure

Choosing a repair company

What affects the price in Brascote

Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • Where you are, by postcode

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your LE9 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow most of the day from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  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 day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

How to get a price

Related advice

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

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.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

What we can’t put right

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up

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

What we work on

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

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Brascote

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.

How long does re-enamelling take?

Usually one day, with the bath ready the next day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is there a smell?

A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Leicestershire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, particularly with hard water, and rinse off any bath products.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
