Bath re-enamelling in Broad Oak

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

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.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Broad Oak

When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, re-enamelling is typically the most cost-effective option. There is no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths, and people most frequently call us about several chips and rust patches and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough.

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

Our hiring checklist

Landlord and trade work in Broad Oak

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Repairs by material

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired

Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for most of the day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Getting a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

Advice

Common questions in Broad Oak

Do you cover Broad Oak?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Broad Oak from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

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

Will there be fumes?

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

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes, often. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

Are you accredited?

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

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Broad Oak. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

When we’d advise against a repair

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
