Bath re-enamelling for Hanley Swan homes

About our bath re-enamelling in Hanley Swan

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. Whether it’s several chips and rust patches and staining under the taps and around the waste, we can help.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Hanley Swan?

In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.

The things customers normally mention when they call include:

  • Stains that won’t shift
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • An old resurfacing that is failing

10 questions to ask before you book

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Hanley Swan. The price comes down to:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is
  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Avoid suction-cup mats

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Hanley Swan: your questions answered

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Do the materials smell?

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

Will you leave a mess?

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

How long is the bath unusable?

Generally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.

Do you come to Hanley Swan?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Hanley Swan. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What we do, step by step

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes most of the day, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  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 next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hanley Swan

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Acrylic

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

What a repair cannot fix

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

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • Steel that has corroded right through

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