Bath re-enamelling in Clatford

Bath re-enamelling in Clatford without replacing anything

The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. Most baths are done in one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. We’re often asked to fix a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and a coloured bath you want in white, on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Clatford and across Wiltshire.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

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

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • No need to remove anything
  • Work done at your home or business
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Natural light rather than flash

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Clatford questions

Will you leave a mess?

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

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

How long is the bath unusable?

Usually one day, with the bath ready the day after. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Can you change the colour of my bath?

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

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which generally takes the best part of a day. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Getting a price

For a price in Clatford, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
