About our bath re-enamelling in Brothertoft

We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Typical jobs include an old resurfacing that’s failing and chips and rust in more than one place, in cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.

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.

How it works

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes most of the day. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

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.

Common questions in Brothertoft

How long does re-enamelling last?

That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes. We can do the inside and outside.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the 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

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Common problems we fix in Brothertoft

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • A roll-top that’s seen better days
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it

Our hiring checklist

What affects the price in Brothertoft

Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The material and finish
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

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

If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

What a repair can’t fix

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • A bath that is rusted through
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off

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