Bath re-enamelling in Burntwood without replacing anything

We don’t move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. It typically takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Whether it’s a bath in a colour that no longer suits and lots of chips and rust spots, we can help, on Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and acrylic baths alike.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Staffordshire.

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a full day, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Have chips seen to early
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Store bottles off the bath

Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.

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

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Roll-top and period baths

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

Should you replace it?

Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the entire room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • We leave the room as we found it

Take a look at our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

When we’d advise against a repair

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

  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Burntwood: your questions answered

Is the work guaranteed?

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

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

How long is the bath unusable?

Usually one day, with the bath ready the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.

Will the new finish last?

That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.

Do I need to be at home?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Burntwood?

Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your WS7 postcode.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Rental properties take more wear, 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.

What affects the price in Burntwood

Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Burntwood

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits

Before you book anyone

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether the price covers travel
