Book bath re-enamelling in Dunn Street

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Dunn Street

The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It typically takes one visit, and can be used again the day after. Typical jobs include several chips and rust patches and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, across basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and cast iron baths.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Repairs by material

Roll-top and period baths

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

Acrylic

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

When a repair is not the answer

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Dunn Street

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

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes the best part of a day. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can generally be used the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Dunn Street

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Quotes from your photos

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material

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’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Dunn Street: your questions answered

How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Dunn Street?

Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Does the bath have to be removed?

Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, so Dunn Street is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Dunn Street?

Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
  • A roll-top that’s seen better days

Before booking anyone

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Aftercare advice
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • When it can be used again
