Trusted bath re-enamelling in Clarendon Park

Bath re-enamelling in Clarendon Park without replacing anything

Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Typical jobs include several chips and rust patches and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

Repairs by material

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

When a repair is not the answer

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

What affects the price in Clarendon Park

Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.

How to get a fixed quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any details about the material

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

What we are called out for in Clarendon Park

The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

The things clients normally mention when they call include:

  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • Stains that will not shift

What to look for in a quote

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Aftercare advice

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Clarendon Park questions

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, so Clarendon Park is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Will you leave a mess?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Does re-enamelling smell?

There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Will the bath be moved?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.

The process

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes the best part of a day, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  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. We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Ask for a price

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Repair dripping taps early

Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
