Bath re-enamelling for Heckfield homes

Repair or replace: which is better?

A replacement often means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, generally one day. Prices start from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • No need to remove anything

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Heckfield

Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and acrylic baths, and common reasons people contact us are enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and wear marks under the taps.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Repairs by material

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

Roll-top and period baths

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

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a full day. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can generally be used the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Advice

Landlord and trade work in Heckfield

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

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 usually the cheaper route.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Heckfield

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Are there extra charges for Heckfield?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Does the bath have to be removed?

No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.

When a repair isn’t the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

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

What we work on

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

What we’re called out for in Heckfield

By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Resurfacing sorts them out together.

  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off

Questions to ask before you book

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

10 questions to ask before booking

What affects the price in Heckfield

Resurfacing from £350. There is no charge for travel to Heckfield. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

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

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
