Bath re-enamelling for Compton homes

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Respect the curing time we give you

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

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

About our bath re-enamelling in Compton

If your bath is sound but looks tired, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Typical jobs include an old resurfacing that’s failing and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, across pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and cast iron baths.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently 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.

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

How it works

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow most of the day. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Open a window if you can

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Advice

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

When we would advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A metal bath with a through crack

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

What we’re called out for in Compton

Enamel does not fail overnight. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • Lots of chips and rust spots

How to compare quotes

Common questions in Compton

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send photos.

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

Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

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.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Nothing else is disturbed. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
