About our bath re-enamelling in Compton Verney

If your bath is sound but looks tired, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Our technicians work on cast iron baths, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people get in touch are several chips and rust patches and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • A bath that is rusted through
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot

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

Materials we work on in Compton Verney

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

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Have chips seen to early
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners

Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.

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

Common problems we fix in Compton Verney

By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Resurfacing sorts them out together.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
  • Stains that won’t shift
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring

Questions to ask before you book

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How to care for the finish
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Who will actually do the work

Our hiring checklist

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

What affects the price in Compton Verney

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A picture taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know

If you are in Compton Verney and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Should you replace it?

Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • One visit for most repairs

The process

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It typically takes the best part of a day, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
