Bath re-enamelling near Faberstown

Bath re-enamelling in Faberstown, done in place

Most baths are re-enamelled in a day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. We regularly repair acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths, and people most often call us about a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and thin, worn enamel in places.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

For anyone letting property in or around Faberstown, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Faberstown?

Older baths often have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.

Common reasons people in Faberstown contact us include:

  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • One picture of the whole bath
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Faberstown, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface

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

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

What a repair can’t fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • A bath that’s rusted through
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A metal bath with a through crack

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

Materials we repair

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

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow most of the day, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  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. The bath is left to cure and can normally be used the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
