Bath re-enamelling in Charlton Musgrove

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Charlton Musgrove

After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Typical jobs include chips and rust in more than one place and an old resurfacing that’s failing, in pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and cast iron baths.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

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

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Charlton Musgrove. The price reflects:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Charlton Musgrove

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Charlton Musgrove as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

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

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes the best part of a day. We leave the room clean.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know about parking or access

Getting a price

Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your BA9 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners

A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, so limescale can’t build up.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

Common problems we fix in Charlton Musgrove

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

Common reasons people in Charlton Musgrove contact us include:

  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it

Common questions in Charlton Musgrove

Does re-enamelling smell?

Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Can you quote from pictures?

Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, generally one day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
