Bath re-enamelling for Drayton homes

Should you replace it?

Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and normally a day, with the bath back in use the following day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Drayton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

About our bath re-enamelling in Drayton

Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Common call-outs are for a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and chips and rust in more than one place, in pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Drayton, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Drayton use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

When a repair is not the answer

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • A bath split right through the body
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • Steel that has corroded right through

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath

Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

The process

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a full day, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s generally ready the following day.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Questions from Drayton

How long is the bath unusable?

Typically a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

Do you work in Drayton?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Drayton and the rest of Lincolnshire. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Drayton.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

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

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Is there a smell?

Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

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

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
