Bath re-enamelling near Compton

Bath re-enamelling in Compton, done in place

A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, 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 Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths, and the jobs we see most are a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and lots of chips and rust spots.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Staffordshire.

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

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

How to look after the repair

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why book with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Compton: your questions answered

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

What happens if you find more damage?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send pictures.

When can you do it?

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

How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Compton?

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

Can you quote from photos?

Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Will the bath be moved?

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

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How much damage there is

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

When a repair is not the answer

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

  • A bath that is rusted through
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A bath split right through the body

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

Materials we work on in Compton

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

What we do, step by step

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes the best part of a day, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Getting a price

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Repairs by material

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
