Bath re-enamelling in Catisfield

Repairing versus replacing in Catisfield

Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Bath re-enamelling in Catisfield without replacing anything

We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we don’t cut corners on it. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths, and common reasons people get in touch are thin, worn enamel in places and lots of chips and rust spots.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

How to compare quotes

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow most of the day from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Catisfield

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Catisfield?

Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Landlord and trade work in Catisfield

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

For anyone letting property in or around Catisfield, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Fix dripping taps quickly

A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
