Bath re-enamelling near Haywood Oaks

Haywood Oaks: your questions answered

How long does re-enamelling take?

One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Nottinghamshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Will the bath be moved?

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

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Bath re-enamelling in Haywood Oaks without replacing anything

Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. Common call-outs are for staining under the taps and around the waste and a coating lifting around the plughole, in basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

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 and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

What we cannot put right

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

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

Surfaces we repair

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

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes the best part of a day. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

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 tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas

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

Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

What affects the price in Haywood Oaks

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Haywood Oaks. The price reflects:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

When to call us in Haywood Oaks

Previous coatings can fail too, peeling around the waste or bubbling. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.

The things clients typically mention when they call are:

  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste

What your quote should include

  • What prep work is covered
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What happens if they find more damage

How to compare quotes

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a bath typically involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and generally one day, with the bath ready the following day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

What you get with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Colour-matched on site
