Bath re-enamelling near Broadwindsor

About our bath re-enamelling in Broadwindsor

Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without a refit. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. We are frequently asked to fix lots of chips and rust spots and an outdated colour you’d like to change, on Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and cast iron baths.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

Broadwindsor: your questions answered

How long does re-enamelling take?

Most baths are done in a day, ready the day after. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Do you cover the entire of Dorset?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Do you come to Broadwindsor?

We do. We send a technician to Broadwindsor for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Repair or replace: which is better?

There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why book with us

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Read our pricing or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

What we can’t put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Broadwindsor

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

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Broadwindsor

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

For anyone letting property in or around Broadwindsor, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It normally takes the best part of a day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the next day.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Aftercare tips

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

  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, so limescale cannot build up.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
