Bath re-enamelling near Buttonoak

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Buttonoak

Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without a refit. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. We are frequently asked to fix an old resurfacing that’s failing and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, in acrylic baths, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Worcestershire.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • The material, if you know it
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Buttonoak

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow the best part of a day from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can generally be used the following day.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Ask for a price

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your DY12 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Common questions in Buttonoak

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do you need to take the bath out?

Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.

Will there be fumes?

Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Buttonoak. Prices do not change with location.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

Generally, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send pictures.

How long will the bath be out of use?

Normally one day, with the bath ready the next day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Never use suction bath mats

Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

Repairs by material

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

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.

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Buttonoak

Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, with nothing wrong except the surface. The body of the bath is typically perfectly sound.

The things clients usually mention when they call include:

  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • Wear marks under the taps
  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off

Before you book anyone

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
