How we handle bath re-enamelling in Gedney Drove End

After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Our repair technicians work on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths, and people most often call us about a coating lifting around the plughole and a bath in a colour that no longer suits.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.

Roll-top and period baths

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Gedney Drove End

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

When to call us in Gedney Drove End

The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How soon you can use it again

Choosing a repair company

What happens on the day

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes the best part of a day. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

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

Gedney Drove End: your questions answered

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.

How do I book?

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

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • A metal bath with a through crack

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One picture of the entire bath

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

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.
