About our bath re-enamelling in Fernhill Heath

We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. We’re frequently asked to fix enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and an old resurfacing that’s failing, on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops.

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

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

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.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any details about the material

For a price in Fernhill Heath, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

How it works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a full day.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse off any bath products.

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

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Fernhill Heath?

A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • Stains that won’t shift
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • An old resurfacing that is failing

Common questions in Fernhill Heath

How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Fernhill Heath?

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your WR3 postcode.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Will the bath be moved?

No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
