What affects the price in Greylees

Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Greylees

After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we do not cut corners on it. Typical jobs include worn patches where water runs and sits and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, across acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

How to look after the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface

Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What we’re called out for in Greylees

Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths dull the surface, usually first under the taps and around the waste.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • Several chips and rust patches
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • Thin, worn enamel in places

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Repairs by material

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow the best part of a day from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
