Bath re-enamelling near Deveral

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Bath re-enamelling in Deveral without replacing anything

After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Common call-outs are for a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, in acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple:

  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Repair dripping taps early

Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Deveral

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

What affects the price in Deveral

Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A photo taken from further back

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Honest limits

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • Steel that has corroded right through

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

Materials we work on in Deveral

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

10 questions to ask before booking

How the visit works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take the best part of a day, including clearing up.

  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. 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 day after.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

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. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
