About our bath re-enamelling in Greenhills

If your bath is sound but looks tired, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. We work on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What a repair cannot fix

  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take the best part of a day, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Advice

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Store bottles off the bath

Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
