Trusted bath re-enamelling in Chaxhill

Why repair rather than replace?

Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why Chaxhill customers choose us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Everything repaired in place
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Bath re-enamelling in Chaxhill, done in place

Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. We work on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths, and people most frequently call us about lots of chips and rust spots and worn patches where water runs and sits.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a full day. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  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 until the following day.

Before we arrive

Related advice

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.

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 what we repair.

When to call us in Chaxhill

Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, peeling around the waste or bubbling. We strip what’s failing and start again.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • A coloured bath you want in white

Questions to ask before you book

  • Who will actually do the work
  • Aftercare advice
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Choosing a repair company

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.

Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Chaxhill

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

Will there be fumes?

A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes. We can do the inside and outside.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Chaxhill. The price reflects:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Chaxhill, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
