Bath re-enamelling in Grinton

About our bath re-enamelling in Grinton

The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It normally takes one visit, and can be used again the following day. Our technicians work on basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths, and common reasons people contact us are brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and an old resurfacing that’s failing.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in North Yorkshire.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Grinton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Grinton use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Grinton. The price comes down to:

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

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Repairing versus replacing in Grinton

There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing typically wins. Prices start from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Grinton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why Grinton clients choose us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take most of the day, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

When to call us in Grinton

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

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean

Before booking anyone

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether the price covers travel

Questions from Grinton

How long will the bath be out of use?

Most baths are done in a day, ready the day after. We give you timings with the quote.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Does the bath have to be removed?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

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

Materials we repair

Repairs by material

Roll-top and period baths

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

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.
