Bath re-enamelling in Coundon without replacing anything

We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Typical jobs include a coloured bath you want in white and stains that won’t shift, in pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Coventry.

Honest limits

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The material
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a full day. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice

When to call us in Coundon

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A roll-top that is seen better days
  • Stains that will not shift
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits

Questions to ask before booking

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How the colour is matched
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How long it needs to cure

Choosing a repair company

Questions from Coundon

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Are there extra charges for Coundon?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Repairing versus replacing in Coundon

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Coventry and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

For anyone letting property in or around Coundon, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
