Need bath re-enamelling in Eaton Ford?

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Eaton Ford

Resurfacing renews the entire surface of the bath without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. We regularly repair acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths, and the jobs we see most are a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and wear marks under the taps.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Prices start from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why book with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

See our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Eaton Ford use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes most of the day. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  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 typically be used the next day.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from photos

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Questions from Eaton Ford

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Is there a guarantee?

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

What we’re called out for in Eaton Ford

In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.

Clients generally contact us about:

  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change

Questions to ask before you book

  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
