Bath re-enamelling in Crowdhill

Bath re-enamelling in Crowdhill, done in place

We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and cast iron baths, and common reasons people get in touch are brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and a roll-top that’s seen better days.

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

What a repair can’t fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

The process

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a full day. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  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. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Advice

Landlords, agents and businesses in Crowdhill

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Crowdhill use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

What your bath is made of matters

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Why repair rather than replace?

If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Nothing else is disturbed. Prices start from £350. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Crowdhill. The price reflects:

  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Pricing is simple: 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 quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

What we’re called out for in Crowdhill

The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
