Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

Bath re-enamelling in Guestling Green without replacing anything

When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, re-enamelling is usually the most cost-effective option. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Our repair technicians work on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people contact us are a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and stains that won’t shift.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

When we would advise against a repair

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it

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

Materials we work on in Guestling Green

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

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Roll-top and period baths

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

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Guestling Green, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

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 doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Guestling Green?

Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, lifting by the plughole or blistering. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • Stains that will not shift

What your quote should include

  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • If travel is included in the price
  • When it can be used again

How to compare quotes

How the visit works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take the best part of a day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
