Need bath re-enamelling in Clutton?

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired

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

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

Bath re-enamelling in Clutton without replacing anything

After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Typical jobs include worn patches where water runs and sits and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, across pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths.

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Prices start from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Clutton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why Clutton clients choose us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • No need to remove anything

Clutton questions

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can you price it without visiting?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

How long is the bath unusable?

Generally one day, with the bath ready the next day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Clutton

Hard water speeds up the wear, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • Wear marks under the taps
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • An old resurfacing that is failing

Choosing a repair company

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a full day. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  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

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • A bath that’s rusted through
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

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

What we work on

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

Prices and what affects them

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

  • The material
  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A picture taken from further back

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
