Bath re-enamelling in Colley Gate without replacing anything

After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Our technicians work on cast iron baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops, and people most often call us about stains that won’t shift and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Repairs by material

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.

Cast iron

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

FAQs for Colley Gate

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Will there be fumes?

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

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

How long does re-enamelling last?

A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

What areas do you cover?

All of Dudley, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Fix dripping taps quickly

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, so limescale can’t build up.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

Work for landlords and builders

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

If you manage property in Colley Gate, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

What a repair cannot fix

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it

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

Surfaces we repair

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

How the visit works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a full day, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Make sure the area is dry

Choosing a repair company

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
