How we handle bath re-enamelling in Curry Mallet

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. We work on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths, and people most frequently call us about a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and wear marks under the taps.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Curry Mallet: your questions answered

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send pictures.

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your TA3 postcode.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes, frequently. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is there a smell?

Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

How to look after the repair

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.

Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.

Why repair rather than replace?

There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Prices start from £350. 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. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How the visit works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to the best part of a day.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Open a window if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
