Need bath re-enamelling in Garway?

What your bath is made of matters

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.

Bath re-enamelling in Garway, done in place

The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the day after. We’re frequently asked to fix worn patches where water runs and sits and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, in Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Garway use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

How to look after the repair

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, so limescale cannot build up.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

What happens on the day

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to most of the day, including clearing up.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why book with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • No extra charge for your area
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

See our full price list and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

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 normally the cheaper route.

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Garway?

Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Does re-enamelling smell?

A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

When to call us in Garway

In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Several chips and rust patches
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • Stains that will not shift
  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough

Before you book anyone

  • How soon you can use it again
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How to look after the finish

Our hiring checklist

What affects the price in Garway

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

  • How many areas need work
  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
