Bath re-enamelling near Gosta Green

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Gosta Green

Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, with the bath ready to use the following day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. We work on Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are an old resurfacing that’s failing and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Gosta Green and across Birmingham.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Colour-matched on site

What we do, step by step

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take the best part of a day.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the following day.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Related advice

Landlord and trade work in Gosta Green

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Birmingham and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Gosta Green questions

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

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

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Do you need to take the bath out?

No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Gosta Green?

Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Roll-top and period baths

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

What a repair can’t fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

What affects the price in Gosta Green

Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit

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.

Send pictures for a quote

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
