Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

About our bath re-enamelling in Burley

After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Common call-outs are for a coloured bath you want in white and thin, worn enamel in places, on basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths.

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

Choosing a repair company

Repair or replace in Burley?

A replacement often means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, generally one day, with the bath back in use the following day. Prices start from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Burley. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

What your bath is made of matters

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

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

Materials we repair

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

Questions from Burley

Do you cover Burley?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Burley for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How long does re-enamelling take?

Most baths are done in a day, ready the next day. We will confirm timings when we quote.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Will there be fumes?

A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Do you cover the entire of Hampshire?

We cover the whole UK, including Burley and the rest of Hampshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

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.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired
  • Respect the curing time we give you

Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a full day, including clearing up.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s typically ready the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
