How we handle bath re-enamelling in Cheswick

After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Whether it’s a coloured bath you want in white and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, we can help, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

How it works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a full day. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can normally be used the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice

Should you replace it?

Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Prices start from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

Why Cheswick clients choose us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

See our full price list or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Have chips seen to early

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Cheswick

A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

How to compare quotes

Common questions in Cheswick

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

What areas do you cover?

All of South Gloucestershire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Do you cover Cheswick?

We do. We send a technician to Cheswick for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Care for it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

Can landlords book you?

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Cheswick. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A picture taken from further back

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed price.

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.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
