Bath re-enamelling near Haywood

Bath re-enamelling in Haywood without replacing anything

We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Whether it’s thin, worn enamel in places and a coating lifting around the plughole, we can help, whatever the material.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a full day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.

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

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Haywood, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas

Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

Common problems we fix in Haywood

Enamel does not fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off

Before you book anyone

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

How to compare quotes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What your bath is made of matters

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
