Bath re-enamelling at your home in East Cambridgeshire

After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. We work on basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths, and people most often call us about thin, worn enamel in places and lots of chips and rust spots.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Questions from East Cambridgeshire

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

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.

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

Usually, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send pictures.

Will you leave a mess?

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

Do you need to take the bath out?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

Does re-enamelling smell?

Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Landlord and trade work in East Cambridgeshire

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What affects the price in East Cambridgeshire

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is
  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed price

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Something in shot to show the size

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes the best part of a day. We leave the room clean.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  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 normally ready the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Avoid suction-cup mats

Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

What we cannot put right

We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • A bath that’s rusted through
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in East Cambridgeshire

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

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.

Roll-top and period baths

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

Do you need bath re-enamelling in East Cambridgeshire?

In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
  • A coloured bath you want in white

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Choosing a repair company

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
