Need bath re-enamelling in Great Rollright?

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Great Rollright

Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, with the bath ready to use the following day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. If you are dealing with several chips and rust patches and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, we can typically put it right.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

When a repair isn’t the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A bath that’s rusted through

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Repairing versus replacing in Great Rollright

If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is generally much cheaper than replacing it, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s also far quicker. Prices start from £350. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Great Rollright

The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

The things customers generally mention when they call are:

  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • Wear marks under the taps
  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough

Comparing quotes

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How your room will be protected
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How soon you can use it again

How to compare quotes

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
