Bath re-enamelling in Brearley

Bath re-enamelling in Brearley without replacing anything

We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Common call-outs are for staining under the taps and around the waste and lots of chips and rust spots, on pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and acrylic baths.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

What a repair cannot fix

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

  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

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

Materials we work on in Brearley

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

Common problems we fix in Brearley

Previous coatings can fail too, lifting by the plughole or blistering. We strip what’s failing and start again.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Repair dripping taps early

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.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Brearley. The price reflects:

  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The material, if you know it

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Questions from Brearley

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.

Are there extra charges for Brearley?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

How long is the bath unusable?

Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Brearley, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

How it works

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take most of the day, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
