Trusted bath re-enamelling in Hardington Moor

The process

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes most of the day, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Hardington Moor

We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and people most often call us about a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

If you manage property in Hardington Moor, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a bath usually involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Repair dripping taps early

The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
