About our bath re-enamelling in Burlingjobb

Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, with the bath ready to use the following day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. Common call-outs are for a peeling or bubbling previous coating and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, on pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

The process

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take the best part of a day, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Advice

When to call us in Burlingjobb

Previous coatings can fail too, peeling around the waste or bubbling. We strip what’s failing and start again.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Several chips and rust patches
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • A roll-top that’s seen better days

Comparing quotes

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How changes to the job are handled

10 questions to ask before you book

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Get any chip repaired quickly

Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Burlingjobb

How long does re-enamelling take?

Usually a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.

Does the bath have to be removed?

No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

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.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Burlingjobb. The price comes down to:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send photos for a quote

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • One picture of the whole bath
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

If you’re in Burlingjobb and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What a repair cannot fix

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
