Bath re-enamelling near Cuckney

Bath re-enamelling in Cuckney 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, so we do not cut corners on it. If you’re dealing with several chips and rust patches and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, we can help.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • A bath split right through the body
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • Steel that has corroded right through

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Repairs by material

Roll-top and period baths

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

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

How to care for the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface

The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Cuckney

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.

Common problems we fix in Cuckney

Frequently the bath has just had decades of use, and only the surface is worn. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is typically as strong as ever.

The things customers typically mention when they call include:

  • A roll-top that’s seen better days
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
  • Several chips and rust patches
  • Thin, worn enamel in places

Questions to ask before booking

  • If travel is included in the price
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Aftercare advice
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

Choosing a repair company

Should you replace it?

Replacing a bath generally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and typically one day, with the bath ready the next day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why book with us

  • Colour-matched on site
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

What we do, step by step

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 typically takes most of the 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. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
