Common problems we fix in Healey

Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, and only the surface is worn. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is usually as strong as ever.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
  • An old resurfacing that is failing
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits

About our bath re-enamelling in Healey

We don’t move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. Most baths are done in one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Whether it’s thin, worn enamel in places and staining under the taps and around the waste, we can help, on pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops alike.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Healey

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you work in Healey?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Healey. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Are there extra charges for Healey?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Will there be a smell?

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

What happens after I send pictures?

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

How long does re-enamelling last?

It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Fix dripping taps quickly

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Healey

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Healey as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

What bath re-enamelling costs

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

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A photo taken from further back

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

What a repair can’t fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

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

Materials we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 is not prepared the repair will not last.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a full day.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Related advice

Why repair rather than replace?

There are times replacing is better: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the whole room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Prices start from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Healey. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
