About our bath re-enamelling in Felmersham

Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. If you’re dealing with staining under the taps and around the waste and an outdated colour you’d like to change, we can help.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Felmersham questions

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

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 soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

How long does re-enamelling last?

That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do you work in Felmersham?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Felmersham from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

Generally, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

What a repair can’t fix

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

  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • A bath split right through the body

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

Materials we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Landlord and trade work in Felmersham

If you manage property in Felmersham, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

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

Repairs by material

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.

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.

How the visit 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 normally takes the best part of a day. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  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 until the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What affects the price in Felmersham

Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
