Need bath re-enamelling in Dunsfold?

Why repair rather than replace?

A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the next day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Dunsfold

When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. There’s no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. We work on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and cast iron baths, and people most often call us about a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and an outdated colour you’d like to change.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What we can’t put right

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Dunsfold: your questions answered

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Do you cover Dunsfold?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Dunsfold and the rest of Surrey. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

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.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Dunsfold

Older baths frequently have several problems at once: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Resurfacing sorts them out together.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits

Questions to ask before you book

  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What prep work is covered

Choosing a repair company

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Store bottles off the bath
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Dunsfold

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

For anyone letting property in or around Dunsfold, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

How it works

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a full day, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  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. The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
