Bath re-enamelling near Fittleton

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Fittleton

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops, and people most often call us about an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean.

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

How to look after the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Get any chip repaired quickly

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

What affects the price in Fittleton

Prices start from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The colour and finish to match

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A picture taken from further back

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

What we’re called out for in Fittleton

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Several chips and rust patches

Comparing quotes

  • What prep work is covered
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Our hiring checklist

What happens on the day

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take most of the day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Questions from Fittleton

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Will there be fumes?

Yes, while we’re applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

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

Are there extra charges for Fittleton?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
