Bath re-enamelling in Broughton in Furness

About our bath re-enamelling in Broughton in Furness

After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. If you’re dealing with an old resurfacing that’s failing and chips and rust in more than one place, we can help, on pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths alike.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes the best part of a day. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

FAQs for Broughton in Furness

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Are there extra charges for Broughton in Furness?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Broughton in Furness?

Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

Does the bath have to be removed?

No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

What we are called out for in Broughton in Furness

By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Resurfacing sorts them out together.

Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:

  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • Lots of chips and rust spots

What to look for in a quote

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What preparation is included
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • If travel is included in the price

Our hiring checklist

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple:

  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse off any bath products.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Broughton in Furness. The price reflects:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material
  • How many areas need work

We don’t 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

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A photo taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can give you a fixed price.
