Bath re-enamelling near Glasbury

How to care for the repair

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Respect the curing time we give you

Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Glasbury

Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. Whether it’s chips and rust in more than one place and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

How the visit works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take the best part of a day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear the area around the damage

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Glasbury questions

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Does the bath have to be removed?

No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

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

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Are there extra charges for Glasbury?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Glasbury.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

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

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Glasbury?

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

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
  • Thin, worn enamel in places

Repair or replace in Glasbury?

When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Nothing else is disturbed. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • Steel that has corroded right through

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
