How long does re-enamelling take?

Normally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Cold Hatton

When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, re-enamelling is typically the most cost-effective option. There is no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. Our technicians work on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths, and people most frequently call us about an old resurfacing that’s failing and staining under the taps and around the waste.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Cold Hatton?

By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • Wear marks under the taps

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How soon you can use it again

How to compare quotes

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Cold Hatton

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.

Different materials, different repairs

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • The type of damage
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Cold Hatton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash

If you’re in Cold Hatton and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Repairing versus replacing in Cold Hatton

Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, normally one day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes most of the day, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
