Bath re-enamelling in Burscough Bridge

Burscough Bridge: your questions answered

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Will the new finish last?

That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including Burscough Bridge and the rest of Lancashire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Burscough Bridge

Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Our technicians work on Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are an outdated colour you’d like to change and a roll-top that’s seen better days.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

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 often lifts.

How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Store bottles off the bath

Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

What affects the price in Burscough Bridge

Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Quotes from your pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Burscough Bridge, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Repairs by material

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

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.

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Repairing versus replacing in Burscough Bridge

Replacing a bath generally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Burscough Bridge. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How it works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take most of the day. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Honest limits

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • Steel that has corroded right through
