Repairs by material

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Crossgate

Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Whether it’s lots of chips and rust spots and worn patches where water runs and sits, we can normally put it right, on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops alike.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

When we would advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • Steel that has corroded right through

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

How to care for the repair

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Have chips seen to early
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.

Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

Choosing a repair company

Landlord and trade work in Crossgate

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Crossgate as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Crossgate: your questions answered

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Is there a smell?

A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Do you cover Crossgate?

We do. We send a technician to Crossgate for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

Usually, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

How long does re-enamelling last?

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

What we do, step by step

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a full day. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  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. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, normally one day. Prices start from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
