Bath re-enamelling in Halton

Bath re-enamelling in Halton, done in place

After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Common call-outs are for a bath in a colour that no longer suits and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, across basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Repair or replace: which is better?

There are times replacing is better: 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.

Questions from Halton

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Halton?

Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is there a smell?

Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

Usually, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send photos.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Do you cover Halton?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Halton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

What affects the price in Halton

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Halton. What changes the price is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Halton, and we will reply with a fixed price.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow the best part of a day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  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. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 will not last.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish

Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.

Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

When we would advise against a repair

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Steel that has corroded right through

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

Repairs by material

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

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.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.
