Bath re-enamelling in Davistown without replacing anything

Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Whether it’s enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, we can help, whatever the material.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Davistown and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

FAQs for Davistown

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.

How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Davistown?

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Are there extra charges for Davistown?

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

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

How to care for the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners

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

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

Work for landlords and builders

How we price bath re-enamelling

  • The type of damage
  • The material

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Common problems we fix in Davistown

The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:

  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • Stains that won’t shift
  • Thin, worn enamel in places

What to look for in a quote

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • If travel is included in the price
  • What preparation is included
  • How long it needs to cure

10 questions to ask before you book

What we do, step by step

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to the best part of a day, tidy-up included.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

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

Honest limits

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

  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • A bath split right through the body

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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