Bath re-enamelling near Hague Bar

Landlord and trade work in Hague Bar

For anyone letting property in or around Hague Bar, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Hague Bar

We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, and we take our time over it. Common call-outs are for an outdated colour you’d like to change and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, on Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • Access to the area
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • Where you are, by postcode

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Hague Bar

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Are there extra charges for Hague Bar?

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

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

How long will the bath be out of use?

Normally one day, with the bath ready the next day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

The process

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take most of the day, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Open a window if you can

Advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Hague Bar?

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

Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:

  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • Several chips and rust patches
  • A roll-top that is seen better days
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off

Before you book anyone

  • If travel is included in the price
  • When it can be used again
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What aftercare is recommended

Choosing a repair company

What a repair can’t fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
