How we handle bath re-enamelling in Hampson Green

We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. We regularly repair cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are lots of chips and rust spots and staining under the taps and around the waste.

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

Different materials, different repairs

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 pay close attention there.

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Landlord and trade work in Hampson Green

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hampson Green use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Hampson Green: your questions answered

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.

How do I book?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Does the bath have to be removed?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you cover the whole of Lancashire?

All of Lancashire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.

How to care for the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Fix dripping taps quickly

A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It typically takes most of the day, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
