Need bath re-enamelling in Dunsbury?

Landlord and trade work in Dunsbury

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

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

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Dunsbury

We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Whether it’s an outdated colour you’d like to change and an old resurfacing that’s failing, we can typically put it right.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Isle of Wight.

FAQs for Dunsbury

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Do you come to Dunsbury?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Dunsbury and the rest of Isle of Wight. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Which areas do you work in?

The entire UK, including all of Isle of Wight. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Does the bath have to be removed?

No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.

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

How it works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes most of the day, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Ask for 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 price the job the same day in most cases.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.

Roll-top and period baths

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The material, if you know it

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
