About our bath re-enamelling in Evenlode

We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Whether it’s an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, we can normally put it right, on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops alike.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

FAQs for Evenlode

Does re-enamelling smell?

A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

Will the new finish last?

Look after it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.

Do you come to Evenlode?

We do. We send a technician to Evenlode for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

How long will the bath be out of use?

Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

What a repair can’t fix

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • A bath split right through the body

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

How it works

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes the best part of a day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work
  • The material
  • Access to the area

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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
