Bath re-enamelling in Hayne

What your bath is made of matters

Roll-top and period baths

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

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.

About our bath re-enamelling in Hayne

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. If you’re dealing with a coloured bath you want in white and several chips and rust patches, we can typically put it right.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Hayne and across Devon.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • One picture of the whole bath
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Something in shot to show the size

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

When we’d advise against a repair

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Hayne

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

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Hayne

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Hayne included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.

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

Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

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.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

How long is the bath unusable?

Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.

How to care for the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Store bottles off the bath

Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

Repair or replace: which is better?

For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s also far quicker. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Why us?

  • Work done at your home or business
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Everything repaired in place
  • One visit for most repairs

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Hayne?

Older baths frequently have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.

Most people contact us when they notice one of these:

  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How soon you can use it again
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

Choosing a repair company

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.

How it works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes the best part of a day, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s generally ready the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
