Bath re-enamelling near Crawshawbooth

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Crawshawbooth

Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Our repair technicians work on acrylic baths, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people contact us are a peeling or bubbling previous coating and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

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.

What a repair cannot fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is
  • The type of damage
  • How easy the damage is to reach

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Send photos for a quote

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Repairs by material

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.

What we are called out for in Crawshawbooth

In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean

Questions to ask before you book

  • How your room will be protected
  • When it can be used again
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Choosing a repair company

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It normally takes a full day, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Open a window if you can
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

How to care for the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.

Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a bath normally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and generally one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts 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.
