Trusted bath re-enamelling in Broadwell

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Broadwell

If your bath is sound but looks tired, re-enamelling is normally the most cost-effective option. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. We work on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and people most often call us about a coloured bath you want in white and chips and rust in more than one place.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Broadwell questions

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed price. You’re under no obligation.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.

Repairing versus replacing in Broadwell

Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Broadwell

  • No need to remove anything

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

For landlords and businesses

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

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Warwickshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot

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

What we work on

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

What we are called out for in Broadwell

Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, with nothing wrong except the surface. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is usually as strong as ever.

Look out for any of the following:

  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
  • Several chips and rust patches

Before you book anyone

  • How long it needs to cure
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

10 questions to ask before you book

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It usually takes most of the day, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Advice

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Never use suction bath mats

Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse off any bath products.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
