Bath re-enamelling in Cadley, done in place

The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. It normally takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Our repair technicians work on Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people contact us are a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and thin, worn enamel in places.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Questions from Cadley

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.

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.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Do I have to be there?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

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

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Repair dripping taps early

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

How it works

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take the best part of a day. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Roll-top and period baths

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

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Cadley?

Often the bath has just had decades of use, and only the surface is worn. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is normally as strong as ever.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Wear marks under the taps
  • Several chips and rust patches
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean

Before you book anyone

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • When it can be used again
  • How the colour is matched
  • What happens if they find more damage

10 questions to ask before booking

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Cadley

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it
  • A photo taken from further back

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
