Bath re-enamelling near Clemenstone

Bath re-enamelling in Clemenstone without replacing anything

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. If you are dealing with a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, we can help, on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths alike.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Honest limits

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Basins & shower trays
  • Pressed steel baths

What affects the price in Clemenstone

Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A photo taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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

FAQs for Clemenstone

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do you need to take the bath out?

No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.

For landlords and businesses

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

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath

Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

How to compare quotes

How it works

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a full day from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
