Bath re-enamelling for Cotes homes

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Bath re-enamelling in Cotes without replacing anything

Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Whether it’s a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and wear marks under the taps, we can typically put it right.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Landlord and trade work in Cotes

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

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

When to call us in Cotes

Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits

Before you book anyone

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How to look after the finish
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What happens if they find more damage

How to compare quotes

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes most of the day. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the following day.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Repairing versus replacing in Cotes

When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Nothing else is disturbed. Prices start from £350. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Everything repaired in place

Cotes questions

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Is there a smell?

Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

Generally, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send pictures.

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

Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your ST15 postcode.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Cotes.

Do you cover Cotes?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Cotes and the rest of Staffordshire. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, so Cotes is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

How to care for the repair

To keep it looking its best:

  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • The type of damage
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

Honest limits

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

  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
  • A bath that’s rusted through
  • A bath split right through the body

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