Bath re-enamelling in Hawbush Green

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Hawbush Green

Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. We work on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths, and common reasons people contact us are a coloured bath you want in white and lots of chips and rust spots.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Hawbush Green

Is there a smell?

Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Hawbush Green?

Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the entire UK, including Hawbush Green and the rest of Essex. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.

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

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a full day for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Hawbush Green

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

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

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.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hawbush Green

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Essex and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
