Bath re-enamelling for Burridge homes

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Burridge

If your bath is sound but looks tired, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Whether it’s an old resurfacing that’s failing and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, we can help, whatever the material.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

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.

Landlord and trade work in Burridge

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Burridge use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Repairing versus replacing in Burridge

Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing usually wins. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Have chips seen to early
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Avoid suction-cup mats

Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

What a repair can’t fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A bath split right through the body
  • Steel that has corroded right through

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Repairs by material

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

When to call us in Burridge

Older baths often have several problems at once: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.

Most people contact us when they notice one of these:

  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Aftercare advice

10 questions to ask before booking

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a full day, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s typically ready the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Make sure the area is dry

Advice

Burridge: your questions answered

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do the materials smell?

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

How long will the bath be out of use?

Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
