About our bath re-enamelling in Great Henny

Resurfacing renews the entire surface of the bath without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. If you’re dealing with brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and an outdated colour you’d like to change, we can help.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Great Henny

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Is there a smell?

Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.

Common problems we fix in Great Henny

Many baths we resurface have simply been well used. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is usually as strong as ever.

Customers typically contact us about:

  • A roll-top that’s seen better days
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it

Our hiring checklist

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, 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 typically the cheaper route.

What happens on the day

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes the best part of a day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  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

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Great Henny. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Great Henny, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Respect the curing time we give you

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

Should you replace it?

When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Nothing else is disturbed. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise 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.
