Bath re-enamelling in Dulcote

About our bath re-enamelling in Dulcote

After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we don’t cut corners on it. Common call-outs are for stains that won’t shift and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, in cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes most of the day. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s generally ready the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Advice

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Dulcote?

In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.

Clients generally contact us about:

  • A roll-top that is seen better days
  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How the colour is matched
  • When it can be used again
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Choosing a repair company

What your bath is made of matters

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Dulcote

Can landlords book you?

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

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote, typically with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

Repair or replace in Dulcote?

If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Prices start from £350. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why Dulcote clients choose us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Read our full price list or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Dulcote

If you manage property in Dulcote, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

What we can’t put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
  • A metal bath with a through crack

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
