Bath re-enamelling at your home in Connor Downs

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. If you are dealing with enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and lots of chips and rust spots, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

If you manage property in Connor Downs, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Connor Downs questions

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

What information do you need?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do you need to take the bath out?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

How long will the bath be out of use?

Most baths are done in a day, ready the next day. We give you timings with the quote.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Repairing versus replacing in Connor Downs

Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Connor Downs. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Colour-matched on site
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for most of the day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  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 until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Ask for a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

What bath re-enamelling costs

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

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage
  • The colour and finish to match

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed price.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

When to call us in Connor Downs

A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.

Common reasons people in Connor Downs contact us include:

  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • Chips and rust in more than one place

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • When it can be used again
  • What prep work is covered
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Our hiring checklist

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it

Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
