Bath re-enamelling for Great Gidding homes

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Great Gidding

We don’t move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the following day. We work on acrylic baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people get in touch are an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. 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
  • The type of damage

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from photos

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • The material, if you know it

Most clients in Great Gidding get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Landlord and trade work in Great Gidding

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Prices start from £350. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What you get with us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

When to call us in Great Gidding

A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off

What to look for in a quote

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What prep work is covered

10 questions to ask before booking

Great Gidding: your questions answered

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Great Gidding?

Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.

Do you come to Great Gidding?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Great Gidding. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow most of the day. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • A metal bath with a through crack

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

Surfaces we repair

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