Bath re-enamelling near Burlings

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
  • Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.

About our bath re-enamelling in Burlings

We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, and we take our time over it. We are frequently asked to fix an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and wear marks under the taps, in pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What affects the price in Burlings

Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether we combine several jobs

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 play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your pictures

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Burlings, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Read our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

When we’d advise against a repair

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • A bath that is rusted through
  • A metal bath with a through crack

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

How it works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take the best part of a day, including clearing up.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  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 until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Open a window if you can

Advice

Burlings: your questions answered

Do you cover Burlings?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Does the bath have to be removed?

No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Burlings

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

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.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

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.

What we’re called out for in Burlings

The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

The things customers normally mention when they call include:

  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
  • An old resurfacing that is failing
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • A coloured bath you want in white

Before booking anyone

  • How long it needs to cure
  • What preparation is included
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How changes to the job are handled
