Trusted bath re-enamelling in Budhill

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes the best part of a day, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know about parking or access

Advice

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Budhill

We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. Common call-outs are for a bath in a colour that no longer suits and wear marks under the taps, across pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Budhill and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Repairing versus replacing in Budhill

If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Nothing else is disturbed. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

See our prices page and bath cost comparison.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

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

What we work on

  • Cast iron baths

What your bath is made of matters

Roll-top and period baths

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

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
  • Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.

What we are called out for in Budhill

A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • Several chips and rust patches
  • A roll-top that is seen better days
  • Thin, worn enamel in places
