Bath re-enamelling in Draycot Foliat, done in place

We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we don’t cut corners on it. Typical jobs include a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and a roll-top that’s seen better days, on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Draycot Foliat. What changes the price is:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage

The price 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 pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A picture taken from further back

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Draycot Foliat questions

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Draycot Foliat?

Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do I need to be at home?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

Do you cover Draycot Foliat?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Draycot Foliat. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Is there a smell?

Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

Do you need to take the bath out?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish

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

Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

What happens on the day

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a full day, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

  • Stains that won’t shift
  • Thin, worn enamel in places
