Bath re-enamelling for Greenhill homes

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Greenhill

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Whether it’s thin, worn enamel in places and chips and rust in more than one place, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Repairing versus replacing in Greenhill

A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing renews the whole surface without moving it. Prices start from £350. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • Colour-matched on site
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Usually one visit, start to finish

See our pricing and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Landlord and trade work in Greenhill

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

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Greenhill. What changes the price is:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, 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

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath

For a price in Greenhill, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work 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. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Ask for a price

Advice

Common problems we fix in Greenhill

Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.

Customers typically contact us about:

  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • Stains that will not shift

Comparing quotes

  • How soon you can use it again
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Aftercare advice

Our hiring checklist

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Avoid suction-cup mats

Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

What your bath is made of matters

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
