Bath re-enamelling at your home in Framingham Pigot

Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths, and common reasons people contact us are a coloured bath you want in white and thin, worn enamel in places.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes the best part of a day for most jobs. We leave the room clean.

  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. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Ensure the area is dry

Advice

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Framingham Pigot?

A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits

What to look for in a quote

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How your room will be protected
  • What preparation is included
  • How changes to the job are handled

10 questions to ask before you book

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
  • Fix dripping taps 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.

Framingham Pigot questions

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Does the bath have to be removed?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.

Does re-enamelling smell?

There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes. Inside and out.

What happens next?

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

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Framingham Pigot included. Travel is included in the price.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Framingham Pigot. What changes the price is:

  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What the surface is made of

We do not 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.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.

Repairing versus replacing in Framingham Pigot

Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing generally wins. Prices start from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
