Bath re-enamelling near Cruckton

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Cruckton

We do not move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. It generally takes one visit, and can be used again the next day. Whether it’s a bath in a colour that no longer suits and an old resurfacing that’s failing, we can normally put it right, on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and cast iron baths alike.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best:

  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Store bottles off the bath

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How much damage there is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Cruckton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Any details about the material

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Repairs by material

Roll-top and period baths

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

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

What we’re called out for in Cruckton

Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.

Clients usually contact us about:

  • Stains that will not shift
  • Wear marks under the taps
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping

How to compare quotes

Repair or replace: which is better?

If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Nothing else is disturbed. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What you get with us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • One visit for most repairs
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • No extra charge for your area

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes most of the day. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Ask for a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
