Bath re-enamelling for Carloggas homes

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Carloggas

A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and staining under the taps and around the waste.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cornwall.

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

When to call us in Carloggas

In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • Stains that won’t shift
  • Several chips and rust patches
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it

What your quote should include

  • If travel is included in the price
  • How your room will be protected
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

How to compare quotes

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes most of the day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  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

  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Carloggas: your questions answered

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Carloggas.

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

How long is the bath unusable?

Most baths are done in a day, ready the following day. We give you timings with the quote.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

When we’d advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

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

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

What your bath is made of matters

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.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.

What affects the price in Carloggas

Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job without visiting.
