Bath re-enamelling for Fenton homes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Bath re-enamelling in Fenton without replacing anything

After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. If you are dealing with wear marks under the taps and stains that won’t shift, we can help.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

When we would advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • A bath that’s rusted through

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Roll-top and period baths

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

What we’re called out for in Fenton

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

The things customers normally mention when they call are:

  • A roll-top that is seen better days
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste

What your quote should include

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How the colour is matched
  • What aftercare is recommended

Choosing a repair company

Landlords, agents and businesses in Fenton

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

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

How to care for the repair

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Fix dripping taps quickly

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, particularly with hard water, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Fenton

Do you cover Fenton?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Fenton from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Fenton. The price comes down to:

  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A picture taken from further back

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take the best part of a day, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
