When a repair is not the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • A bath split right through the body
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber

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

Bath re-enamelling in Gomshall, done in place

A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Typical jobs include staining under the taps and around the waste and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, across cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Should you replace it?

Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Gomshall as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

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.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a full day, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  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. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Different materials, different repairs

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Questions from Gomshall

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do you need to take the bath out?

Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Do you work in Gomshall?

We do. We send a technician to Gomshall for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is there a guarantee?

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

How to care for the repair

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse off any bath products.

Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. There is no area surcharge for Gomshall. The price reflects:

  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Quotes from your photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
