Bath re-enamelling in Church Houses, done in place

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. If you’re dealing with a peeling or bubbling previous coating and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, we can usually put it right, on cast iron baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Church Houses, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

What a repair can’t fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Why repair rather than replace?

There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing typically wins. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

What you get with us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Work done at your home or business

Common questions in Church Houses

Will the bath be moved?

Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

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

Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

Normally, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale

Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse off any bath products.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes most of the day. The room is left tidy.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s generally ready the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Advice

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.

What we are called out for in Church Houses

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.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring

What your quote should include

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How soon you can use it again

Choosing a repair company

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
