About our bath re-enamelling in Fosdyke

We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Common call-outs are for stains that won’t shift and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Fosdyke as everywhere else we work.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once

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

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the entire bath

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

What we cannot put right

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Fosdyke

If you manage property in Fosdyke, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

FAQs for Fosdyke

How long does re-enamelling take?

Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Do you need to take the bath out?

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

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Fosdyke

A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • A roll-top that’s seen better days
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Choosing a repair company

Repair or replace: which is better?

A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, generally one day, and the bath is usable the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why us?

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

See our pricing or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Never use suction bath mats

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

How the visit works

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes most of the day, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Ask for a price

You don’t need a survey visit. 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.
