Bath re-enamelling in Diglis

Honest limits

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

  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up

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

Materials we repair

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

Bath re-enamelling in Diglis, done in place

Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, with the bath ready to use the following day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Common call-outs are for thin, worn enamel in places and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

Diglis: your questions answered

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you cover Diglis?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Diglis from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

Look after it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.

How long does re-enamelling take?

Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.

What happens on the day

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a full day.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

Advice

Repair or replace in Diglis?

A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and generally one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Diglis. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • One visit for most repairs
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Work done at your home or business

See our pricing or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

How to care for the repair

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

What your bath is made of matters

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Diglis. The price comes down to:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed price

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

What we are called out for in Diglis

Previous coatings can fail too, peeling around the waste or bubbling. We strip what’s failing and start again.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • An old resurfacing that is failing
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough

Questions to ask before you book

  • How to care for the finish
  • How your room will be protected
  • What prep work is covered
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
