Bath re-enamelling for Churchstow homes

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface

Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.

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

Bath re-enamelling in Churchstow, done in place

We do not move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It usually takes one visit, and can be used again the next day. If you are dealing with an old resurfacing that’s failing and wear marks under the taps, we can help.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

What affects the price in Churchstow

Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Churchstow. What changes the price is:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the whole bath

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What we’re called out for in Churchstow

Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • A roll-top that’s seen better days
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • Wear marks under the taps

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How your room will be protected

10 questions to ask before you book

Landlord and trade work in Churchstow

For anyone letting property in or around Churchstow, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Honest limits

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber

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

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

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Churchstow

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

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

In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which typically takes most of the day. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice

Different materials, different repairs

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
