Trusted bath re-enamelling in Brownhills West

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Brownhills West as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Walsall and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Bath re-enamelling in Brownhills West, done in place

A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Common call-outs are for a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and stains that won’t shift, on cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Brownhills West. What changes the price is:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • One picture of the whole bath
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your WS8 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

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.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Never use suction bath mats

Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes a full day in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Open a window if you can

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.

What we can’t put right

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Brownhills West questions

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

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 whole item and your postcode.

Does re-enamelling smell?

A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
