Trusted bath re-enamelling in Goatacre

Repair or replace in Goatacre?

A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the entire surface with the bath left where it is. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Bath re-enamelling in Goatacre, done in place

Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, and you can use the bath the next day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. Typical jobs include an old resurfacing that’s failing and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, across Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and cast iron baths.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.

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. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Goatacre use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your SN11 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

What we are called out for in Goatacre

Hard water speeds up the wear, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough

What your quote should include

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

How to compare quotes

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to the best part of a day, tidy-up included.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s usually ready the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How to get a price
