Bath re-enamelling for Burwarton homes

Bath re-enamelling in Burwarton, done in place

We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. If you’re dealing with a bath in a colour that no longer suits and lots of chips and rust spots, we can usually put it right, on Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Burwarton?

In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.

People typically call us when they notice something like this:

  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
  • Lots of chips and rust spots

Questions to ask before you book

  • When it can be used again
  • Aftercare advice

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

10 questions to ask before you book

When a repair is not the answer

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • A bath split right through the body
  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

What happens on the day

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take most of the day. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Related advice

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Roll-top and period baths

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, typically one day, with the bath back in use the next day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Burwarton questions

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

How long does re-enamelling last?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Do you come to Burwarton?

We do. We send a technician to Burwarton for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Do you need to take the bath out?

No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
