Trusted bath re-enamelling in Heath

Bath re-enamelling in Heath, done in place

Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, and you can use the bath the following day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and cast iron baths, and people most frequently call us about a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and wear marks under the taps.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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 what we repair.

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.

Repair or replace in Heath?

When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Nothing else is disturbed. Prices start from £350. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Most jobs done in one visit

Read our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

What we do, step by step

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take the best part of a day. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice

Common questions in Heath

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Will you leave a mess?

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

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes. We can do the inside and outside.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What affects the price in Heath

Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Heath. The price depends on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

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

What a repair can’t fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
  • Steel that has corroded right through

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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