Bath re-enamelling for Cleghorn homes

Common questions in Cleghorn

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Does re-enamelling smell?

A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Cleghorn?

Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

Bath re-enamelling in Cleghorn, done in place

We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Whether it’s a peeling or bubbling previous coating and stains that won’t shift, we can typically put it right, on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops alike.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Have chips seen to early

Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse off any bath products.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

What we cannot put right

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot

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

What we work on

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

Should you replace it?

Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, typically one day, with the bath back in use the next day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Cleghorn. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Repairs by material

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Cleghorn?

Often the bath has just had decades of use, with nothing wrong except the surface. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is usually as strong as ever.

People typically call us after spotting something like this:

  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
  • Stains that will not shift
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • Chips and rust in more than one place

Comparing quotes

  • How soon you can use it again
  • What preparation is included
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

How to compare quotes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes most of the day. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access
