Bath re-enamelling near Cringles

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Cringles

Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths, and common reasons people contact us are an outdated colour you’d like to change and staining under the taps and around the waste.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off

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

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 what we repair.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Repairing versus replacing in Cringles

When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Nothing else is disturbed. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Cringles?

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

The things clients typically mention when they call include:

  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean

10 questions to ask before booking

What affects the price in Cringles

Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • The type of damage
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit

No two jobs are quite the same, 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.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A picture taken from further back

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Common questions in Cringles

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes, frequently. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

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

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

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes the best part of a day. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
