Need bath re-enamelling in Carburton?

Repair or replace: which is better?

There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing generally wins. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

About our bath re-enamelling in Carburton

A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Whether it’s a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and chips and rust in more than one place, we can usually put it right, on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths alike.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.

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

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Carburton?

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

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What prep work is covered
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Choosing a repair company

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Carburton

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

What we can’t put right

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • A bath that is rusted through
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

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

Materials we repair

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

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a full day, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
