Bath re-enamelling near Cordon

Repair or replace: which is better?

For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s also far quicker. Prices start from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Cordon

We don’t move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the next day. If you are dealing with a coating lifting around the plughole and chips and rust in more than one place, we can typically put it right, on Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths alike.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in North Ayrshire.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Cordon

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

Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.

Does the bath have to be removed?

No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.

Are you accredited?

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

How long will the bath be out of use?

Generally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.

What we cannot put right

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Repair dripping taps early

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

Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Cordon

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

How it works

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes the best part of a day, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Any details about the material
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • Where you are, by postcode

You don’t 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 come back to you with a fixed figure.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Roll-top and period baths

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