Bath re-enamelling in Flushing, done in place

Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Typical jobs include stains that won’t shift and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, on basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Flushing. The price depends on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

FAQs for Flushing

Are there extra charges for Flushing?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do you cover the entire of Cornwall?

Across the UK, and that includes Flushing. Our prices are the same everywhere.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Different materials, different repairs

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.

What we are called out for in Flushing

Frequently the bath has just had decades of use. The body of the bath is generally perfectly sound.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Several chips and rust patches
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste

What your quote should include

  • Who will actually do the work
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How to care for the finish

How to compare quotes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How the visit works

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 we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
