About our bath re-enamelling in Churchinford

We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Whether it’s stains that won’t shift and a coloured bath you want in white, we can help, on basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths alike.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

When to call us in Churchinford

By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Resurfacing sorts them out together.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Thin, worn enamel in places

How to compare quotes

The process

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes most of the day, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Getting a price

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The material
  • How much damage there is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Send photos for a quote

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • One picture of the whole bath
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Repairing versus replacing in Churchinford

A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and normally one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. 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 you get with us

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

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’s what we repair.

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Have chips seen to early
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish

A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, so limescale cannot build up.

Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.

Churchinford: your questions answered

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes, frequently. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

Look after it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.

How long is the bath unusable?

Normally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.

Can you price it without visiting?

Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
