Bath re-enamelling at your home in Broompark

We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Common call-outs are for a bath in a colour that no longer suits and a coating lifting around the plughole, in Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Broompark. The price depends on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material
  • How much damage there is
  • How many items we do on one visit

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • The material, if you know it

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

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Broompark?

In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.

Clients generally contact us about:

  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • Stains that will not shift
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it

What your quote should include

  • Who will actually do the work
  • What preparation is included
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • When it can be used again

10 questions to ask before booking

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a full day. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  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. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

What we can’t put right

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

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot

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

Materials we work on in Broompark

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

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Broompark

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Broompark.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Are there extra charges for Broompark?

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

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
