Bath re-enamelling in Flawborough, done in place

Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. We work on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and acrylic baths, and people most frequently call us about a coloured bath you want in white and worn patches where water runs and sits.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a full day. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know about parking or access

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

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.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Flawborough

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes. We can do the inside and outside.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

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

Are you accredited?

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

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

What affects the price in Flawborough

Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Flawborough

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Flawborough as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Repair or replace: which is better?

When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Nothing else is disturbed. Prices start from £350. 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.

Why book with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Work done at your home or business
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
