What we cannot put right

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

  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot

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

Materials we repair

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

Bath re-enamelling in Crowton without replacing anything

Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. Whether it’s an old resurfacing that’s failing and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, we can help, on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops alike.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

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 normally cheaper.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Crowton?

The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

Most people contact us when they notice something like this:

  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • Several chips and rust patches
  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean

Questions to ask before booking

  • Aftercare advice
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

10 questions to ask before booking

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.

Questions from Crowton

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

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Do you need to take the bath out?

No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do you come to Crowton?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Crowton for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Crowton. The price depends on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Most customers in Crowton get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

How the visit works

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes the best part of a day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  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 until the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for 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 you will get a fixed figure back.
