About our bath re-enamelling in Cowesfield Gate

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 day after. Common call-outs are for an old resurfacing that’s failing and chips and rust in more than one place, in Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths.

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

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can normally be used the following day.

Cowesfield Gate questions

How long does re-enamelling last?

Care for it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is there a smell?

A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes. We can do the inside and outside.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

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.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed price. You are under no obligation.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Cowesfield Gate

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

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.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

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

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

When to call us in Cowesfield Gate

Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Several chips and rust patches
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • Wear marks under the taps
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating

What your quote should include

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
