What we are called out for in Hatton

By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Resurfacing sorts them out together.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping

About our bath re-enamelling in Hatton

We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. Typical jobs include enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and thin, worn enamel in places, across pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Repair or replace in Hatton?

When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Nothing else is disturbed. Prices start from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Hatton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes the best part of a day in most cases. We leave the room clean.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice

Questions from Hatton

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Do the materials smell?

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

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes, often. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A picture taken from further back

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