About our bath re-enamelling in Carlton Miniott

Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Our technicians work on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are an outdated colour you’d like to change and wear marks under the taps.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Carlton Miniott and across North Yorkshire.

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

When to call us in Carlton Miniott

A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.

Look out for these signs:

  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
  • A roll-top that’s seen better days
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change

Choosing a repair company

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish

Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

Landlord and trade work in Carlton Miniott

If you manage property in Carlton Miniott, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

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

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It generally takes most of the day, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Open a window if you can

Ask for a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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 tidy up a tiny mark. 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.

When a repair is not the answer

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Carlton Miniott

Is there a call-out fee?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

How long does re-enamelling last?

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

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

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

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
