Bath re-enamelling in Croy

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes most of the day for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Bath re-enamelling in Croy, done in place

A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Whether it’s several chips and rust patches and a coloured bath you want in white, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

When we’d advise against a repair

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

  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.

Why repair rather than replace?

A replacement often means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and usually a day, and the bath is usable the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Colour-matched on site
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Work done at your home or business

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. There is no area surcharge for Croy. The price reflects:

  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed price

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best:

  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.

Questions from Croy

Do you come to Croy?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Croy from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

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

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

How long does re-enamelling last?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Croy

Older baths often have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • Stains that will not shift
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
