Book bath re-enamelling in Broughton

Should you replace it?

A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the next day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • One visit for most repairs
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Bath re-enamelling in Broughton without replacing anything

We don’t move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. It typically takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Common call-outs are for staining under the taps and around the waste and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in North Yorkshire.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes most of the day. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  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.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Different materials, different repairs

Roll-top and period baths

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

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Broughton

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring

10 questions to ask before booking

When a repair is not the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • A bath split right through the body
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

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

Materials we work on in Broughton

What affects the price in Broughton

Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A photo taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

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

Common questions in Broughton

Is there a smell?

Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.

How long does re-enamelling last?

A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, and that includes Broughton. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Broughton?

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

Are there extra charges for Broughton?

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

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Broughton

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
