Trusted bath re-enamelling in Broughton

Bath re-enamelling in Broughton without replacing anything

A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths, and people most frequently call us about an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

How to care for the repair

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish

A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, so limescale can’t build up.

Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.

When to call us in Broughton

Enamel does not fail overnight. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths dull the surface, generally first under the taps and around the waste.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Several chips and rust patches
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
  • A coloured bath you want in white

Before you book anyone

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What prep work is covered
  • When it can be used again

How to compare quotes

Repair or replace in Broughton?

Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Why Broughton customers choose us

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Work done at your home or business

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed price

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes most of the day. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Ask for a price

Most clients in Broughton get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

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.

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

Roll-top and period baths

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