About our bath re-enamelling in Fitton End

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. Whether it’s a coloured bath you want in white and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, we can normally put it right, on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays alike.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Fitton End and across Lincolnshire.

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes the best part of a day. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best:

  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Never use suction bath mats

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

When to call us in Fitton End

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • Wear marks under the taps

What to look for in a quote

  • How soon you can use it again
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What happens if they find more damage

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Work done at your home or business
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Fitton End: your questions answered

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Fitton End included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Will there be fumes?

Yes, while we are applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.

How long will the bath be out of use?

Usually a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.

Do you need to take the bath out?

No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to get a fixed price

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • One picture of the whole bath
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The material, if you know it

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 quote.
