About our bath re-enamelling in Hateley Heath

We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. We’re frequently asked to fix chips and rust in more than one place and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, in basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Hateley Heath and across Sandwell.

When a repair is not the answer

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

  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Holes rusted through the metal

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Hateley Heath

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Hateley Heath. The price depends on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How much damage there is
  • How many items we do on one visit

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Hateley Heath. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

Landlord and trade work in Hateley Heath

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Hateley Heath

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

How long does re-enamelling last?

That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.

How long does re-enamelling take?

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

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Do you need to take the bath out?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do you work in Hateley Heath?

We do. We send a technician to Hateley Heath for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

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 it works

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a full day from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the day after.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Advice

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired

Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
