Bath re-enamelling for Hatherton homes

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Hatherton

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. We are frequently asked to fix an outdated colour you’d like to change and a coating lifting around the plughole, on basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cheshire East.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing the bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the whole surface with the bath left where it is. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a full day in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

When we would advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
  • A bath split right through the body
  • A bath that is rusted through

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Pressed steel baths
  • Acrylic baths
  • Cast iron baths
  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Basins & shower trays

Questions from Hatherton

What do you need from me?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, so Hatherton is covered. Prices do not change with location.

Do you need to take the bath out?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Hatherton.

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What affects the price in Hatherton

Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is
  • The material

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode

Send us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your CW5 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Repairs by material

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.

Landlord and trade work in Hatherton

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

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

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Hatherton?

In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.

The things clients usually mention when they call are:

  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
  • A coating lifting around the plughole

What to look for in a quote

  • What prep work is covered
  • How the colour is matched
  • How soon you can use it again
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
