Bath re-enamelling in Grange Mills

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Grange Mills

We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Whether it’s enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and thin, worn enamel in places, we can normally put it right.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes the best part of a day. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice

Should you replace it?

Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why Grange Mills customers choose us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Grange Mills use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

What we can’t put right

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

  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • A bath that is rusted through
  • A bath split right through the body

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

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

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

What affects the price in Grange Mills

Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Grange Mills. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
