About our bath re-enamelling in Breach

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and cast iron baths, and the jobs we see most are an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and chips and rust in more than one place.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How much damage there is
  • What the surface is made of
  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material

For a price in Breach, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Breach?

Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.

Look out for these signs:

  • Several chips and rust patches
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating

What to look for in a quote

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What prep work is covered
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What happens if they find more damage

10 questions to ask before booking

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Breach questions

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

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

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes. We can do the inside and outside.

Will the bath be moved?

No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

What a repair can’t fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • A bath split right through the body
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we work on in Breach

  • Acrylic baths
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Victorian roll-tops

The process

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 the best part of a day. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know about parking or access

Related advice

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Breach, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Get any chip repaired quickly

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why Breach customers choose us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
