Bath re-enamelling near Chapmanslade

What we can’t put right

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • A bath split right through the body
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Chapmanslade

After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Whether it’s worn patches where water runs and sits and stains that won’t shift, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Chapmanslade. The price depends on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit

Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How to get a fixed quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The material, if you know it

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

What we are called out for in Chapmanslade

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

The things clients generally mention when they call are:

  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • Stains that will not shift

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How your room will be protected

Choosing a repair company

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes the best part of a day, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  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. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Ask for a price

Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your BA13 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Advice

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

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.

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Chapmanslade use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Repair or replace: which is better?

For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s much quicker too. Prices start from £350. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why book with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
