Bath re-enamelling in Deane

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Bath re-enamelling in Deane without replacing anything

Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. We’re frequently asked to fix enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and worn patches where water runs and sits, in basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths.

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

Honest limits

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A bath that is rusted through
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Should you replace it?

If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is normally much cheaper than replacing it, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s also far quicker. Prices start from £350. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures 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

  • No need to remove anything
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Deane: your questions answered

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

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

Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your RG25 postcode.

Is the work guaranteed?

How long will the bath be out of use?

Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.

What we’re called out for in Deane

Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.

Customers generally contact us about:

  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping

Comparing quotes

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Choosing a repair company

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes most of the day. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  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. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
