Bath re-enamelling in Crutherland

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Crutherland

Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, and you can use the bath the following day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. We’re often asked to fix a roll-top that’s seen better days and worn patches where water runs and sits, in cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Crutherland as everywhere else we work.

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners

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

Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in South Lanarkshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • How many areas need work
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

You do not 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 come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Crutherland

Older baths often have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Resurfacing sorts them out together.

Clients usually contact us about:

  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • Several chips and rust patches
  • A coloured bath you want in white

What to look for in a quote

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Aftercare advice

Choosing a repair company

Crutherland questions

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Are there extra charges for Crutherland?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

How long will the bath be out of use?

Usually a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

How it works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes the best part of a day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Advice

Repairs by material

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.

When we would advise against a repair

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • A bath that’s rusted through

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
