Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Hampsthwaite

We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we do not cut corners on it. We work on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths, and the jobs we see most are a coloured bath you want in white and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

When to call us in Hampsthwaite

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change

Choosing a repair company

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Repair or replace: which is better?

If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Prices start from £350. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes most of the day for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  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. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How quickly can you book me in?

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Never use suction bath mats

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Hampsthwaite. The price reflects:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
