How we handle bath re-enamelling in Egerton

The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the day after. Whether it’s a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and thin, worn enamel in places, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

For anyone letting property in or around Egerton, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

Repairing versus replacing in Egerton

For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s much quicker too. Prices start from £350. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Egerton questions

Does someone need to be in?

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

Do you work in Egerton?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Egerton. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will there be fumes?

There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.

Do you cover the entire of Bolton?

All of Bolton, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

How long will the bath be out of use?

Generally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Egerton?

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your BL7 postcode.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

How it works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a full day, including clearing up.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice

What we cannot put right

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

  • A bath split right through the body
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.

Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

When to call us in Egerton

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

Look out for these signs:

  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • A roll-top that is seen better days
  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off

What your quote should include

  • Who will actually do the work
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • If travel is included in the price
  • What preparation is included

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. There is no area surcharge for Egerton. What changes the price is:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is
  • 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 make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
