Bath re-enamelling for Churchill homes

Bath re-enamelling in Churchill without replacing anything

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. Typical jobs include lots of chips and rust spots and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, in basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and acrylic baths.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Repairs by material

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Churchill as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

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

Repair or replace in Churchill?

Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the entire room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Prices start from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What happens next?

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes most of the day in most cases. The room is left tidy.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice

What affects the price in Churchill

Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Churchill. The price reflects:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Common problems we fix in Churchill

Hard water speeds up the wear, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • A roll-top that’s seen better days
  • Wear marks under the taps

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface

Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
