Trusted bath re-enamelling in Burton Joyce

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Do not use the bath until it has fully cured

Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Burton Joyce

We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we do not cut corners on it. Our repair technicians work on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people get in touch are an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

What we cannot put right

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Prices start from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Burton Joyce. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Work done at your home or business
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Common problems we fix in Burton Joyce

Enamel does not fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • A roll-top that is seen better days
  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits

Comparing quotes

  • Aftercare advice
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Who will actually do the work
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

10 questions to ask before you book

Burton Joyce questions

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

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

Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Do I need to be at home?

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

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes the best part of a day. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  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 day after.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Make sure the area is dry

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Burton Joyce, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
