Bath re-enamelling near Greensted Green

About our bath re-enamelling in Greensted Green

The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. Most baths are done in one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. We are often asked to fix an old resurfacing that’s failing and a coloured bath you want in white, across pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Greensted Green and across Essex.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

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.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take most of the day, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Open a window if you can

How to get a price

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. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Greensted Green

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can tenants book a repair?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Will the bath be moved?

Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.

How long does re-enamelling last?

It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.

Do you come to Greensted Green?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Greensted Green and the rest of Essex. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Greensted Green

Previous coatings can fail too, peeling around the waste or bubbling. We strip what’s failing and start again.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • Wear marks under the taps
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring

Before booking anyone

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether they match the colour on site

How to compare quotes

What we cannot put right

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

  • A bath split right through the body
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

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

Materials we work on in Greensted Green

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

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Greensted Green, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Greensted Green use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

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.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
