Book bath re-enamelling in Gratton

How it works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a full day, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Bath re-enamelling in Gratton without replacing anything

Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without taking anything out. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. We’re frequently asked to fix chips and rust in more than one place and thin, worn enamel in places, on pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Gratton

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. 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 Gratton use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Store bottles off the bath

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

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

What affects the price in Gratton

Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The material, if you know it

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Repairing versus replacing in Gratton

A replacement often means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, usually one day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Work done at your home or business

Questions from Gratton

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

How long does re-enamelling take?

Most baths are done in a day, ready the following day. We give you timings with the quote.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Common problems we fix in Gratton

Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, usually first under the taps and around the waste.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • A roll-top that is seen better days
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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.

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Roll-top and period baths

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