Bath re-enamelling in Cleeve Hill, done in place

If your bath is sound but looks tired, re-enamelling is typically the most cost-effective option. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. We are frequently asked to fix several chips and rust patches and a coloured bath you want in white, across pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

Repairs by material

Roll-top and period baths

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

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area
  • How hard the colour is to match

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the whole bath

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Cleeve Hill

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cleeve Hill as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

What we are called out for in Cleeve Hill

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

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • A roll-top that’s seen better days

What your quote should include

  • How the colour is matched
  • Aftercare advice
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How your room will be protected

10 questions to ask before you book

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes the best part of a day, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Advice

Common questions in Cleeve Hill

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Do you cover the whole of Gloucestershire?

All of Gloucestershire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Will the bath be moved?

No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What a repair can’t fix

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

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

Materials we repair

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

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple:

  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish

The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.

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