Bath re-enamelling for Creaton homes

About our bath re-enamelling in Creaton

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. We regularly repair cast iron baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops, and people most frequently call us about chips and rust in more than one place and a coating lifting around the plughole.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Questions from Creaton

Does re-enamelling smell?

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

Are there extra charges for Creaton?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.

Can you quote from pictures?

Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

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.

What affects the price in Creaton

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Creaton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Honest limits

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Acrylic

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

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for the best part of a day. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Repair or replace in Creaton?

Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and typically a day, with the bath back in use the next day. Prices start from £350. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath

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

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
