Bath re-enamelling in Cubert without replacing anything

After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. Typical jobs include lots of chips and rust spots and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, in cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops.

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

What we can’t put right

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

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • A bath split right through the body

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Landlord and trade work in Cubert

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cubert use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Repair or replace in Cubert?

Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What you get with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Cubert questions

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

How long does re-enamelling take?

Most baths are done in a day, ready the following day. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Does re-enamelling smell?

Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Roll-top and period baths

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

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Cubert

Hard water speeds up the wear, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • A roll-top that is seen better days
  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off

What to look for in a quote

  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

10 questions to ask before you book

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes most of the day, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s usually ready the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to get a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
