Bath re-enamelling at your home in Elliots Green

Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. Common call-outs are for a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, in pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

What we can’t put right

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

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

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

Materials we work on in Elliots Green

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Elliots Green as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Respect the curing time we give you

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

Common problems we fix in Elliots Green

Enamel does not fail overnight. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, generally first under the taps and around the waste.

People typically call us after spotting one of these:

  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
  • A coating lifting around the plughole

What your quote should include

  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • When it can be used again

How to compare quotes

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Elliots Green. The price reflects:

  • The type of damage
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

How it works

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes the best part of a day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
