Bath re-enamelling for Harmer Hill homes

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Harmer Hill

A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Typical jobs include an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and acrylic baths.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Shropshire.

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

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.

Common questions in Harmer Hill

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, and that includes Harmer Hill. Our prices are the same everywhere.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Will you leave a mess?

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

How long does re-enamelling take?

Generally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it

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

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Repair or replace in Harmer Hill?

For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

See our prices page or bath cost comparison.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a full day.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What we’re called out for in Harmer Hill

Previous coatings can fail too, lifting by the plughole or blistering. We strip what’s failing and start again.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Stains that will not shift
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • A coloured bath you want in white

Questions to ask before you book

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How the room is protected while they work
