When a repair is not the answer

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

About our bath re-enamelling in Dunsmore Heath

We do not move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the following day. We work on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths, and the jobs we see most are a coloured bath you want in white and staining under the taps and around the waste.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a full day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

FAQs for Dunsmore Heath

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Warwickshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Can you quote from pictures?

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

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send photos.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

How long does re-enamelling take?

Usually one day, with the bath ready the day after. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly

Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

Repair or replace: which is better?

When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Nothing else is disturbed. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
