About our bath re-enamelling in Hemingfield

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. If you are dealing with a coloured bath you want in white and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, we can typically put it right, on Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and cast iron baths alike.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Repairs by material

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.

How to look after the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Fix dripping taps quickly

Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.

Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Hemingfield

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Do you need to take the bath out?

Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Are there extra charges for Hemingfield?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

How long does re-enamelling take?

Generally one day, with the bath ready the next day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.

Do I need to be at home?

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

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

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

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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, it’s worth having it done properly.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

How it works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes most of the day, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

What a repair cannot fix

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

  • A bath that’s rusted through
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • A bath split right through the body

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

What we work on

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