Bath re-enamelling in Coldwaltham

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Coldwaltham?

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:

  • A roll-top that’s seen better days
  • Several chips and rust patches
  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
  • Thin, worn enamel in places

Questions to ask before you book

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How your room will be protected
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

About our bath re-enamelling in Coldwaltham

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. We work on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are a coating lifting around the plughole and thin, worn enamel in places.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Coldwaltham and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Should you replace it?

A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and generally one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What you get with us

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Coldwaltham use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, and the work is guaranteed.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes a full day, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How easy the damage is to reach

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Send photos for a quote

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Coldwaltham

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Do you cover the entire of West Sussex?

Everywhere in the UK, Coldwaltham included. Travel is included in the price.

Are there extra charges for Coldwaltham?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

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.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.

In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.
