Bath re-enamelling near Churchstoke

About our bath re-enamelling in Churchstoke

Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Our repair technicians work on acrylic baths, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are stains that won’t shift and a coating lifting around the plughole.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Churchstoke use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Churchstoke. The price depends on:

  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know

For a price in Churchstoke, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

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. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Should you replace it?

Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Prices start from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.

Why book with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • No extra charge for your area

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for the best part of a day from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  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 day after.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Churchstoke

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Churchstoke included. Travel is included in the price.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Do I need to be at home?

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

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

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

Do you come to Churchstoke?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Churchstoke. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
