Bath re-enamelling in Caistor, done in place

Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without a refit. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. We’re often asked to fix an old resurfacing that’s failing and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, in pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Caistor as everywhere else we work.

Repairing versus replacing in Caistor

If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Nothing else is disturbed. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes the best part of a day. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Let us know about parking or access

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 frequently lifts.

FAQs for Caistor

Is there a smell?

Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.

Will the bath be moved?

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

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

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

How long does re-enamelling last?

Look after it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Caistor.

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Lincolnshire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Roll-top and period baths

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

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff:

  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away

Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • A bath split right through the body
