Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Friday Bridge

The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • A roll-top that is seen better days
  • Several chips and rust patches
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits

Choosing a repair company

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Friday Bridge

Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths, and the jobs we see most are thin, worn enamel in places and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

When we would advise against a repair

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale

Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.

Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Why repair rather than replace?

A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and generally one day, with the bath ready the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

What you get with us

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Typically one visit, start to finish

Common questions in Friday Bridge

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you come to Friday Bridge?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Friday Bridge and the rest of Norfolk. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Norfolk.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Friday Bridge. The price reflects:

  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • Details of any past repairs

Most customers in Friday Bridge get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

The process

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes most of the day. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  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. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
