Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Greenoak

We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. We work on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths, and common reasons people contact us are worn patches where water runs and sits and an old resurfacing that’s failing.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in East Riding of Yorkshire.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. There is no area surcharge for Greenoak. The price reflects:

  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match

We do not 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

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Greenoak?

The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • A roll-top that is seen better days
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Stains that won’t shift

What your quote should include

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How changes to the job are handled

Our hiring checklist

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Repair or replace in Greenoak?

For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s much quicker too. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

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

FAQs for Greenoak

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Does the bath have to be removed?

No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is there a smell?

There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

The process

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes most of the day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s typically ready the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
