How we handle bath re-enamelling in Hemyock

If your bath is sound but looks tired, re-enamelling is typically the most cost-effective option. There’s no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. We are often asked to fix an outdated colour you’d like to change and worn patches where water runs and sits, across basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops.

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

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hemyock as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Hemyock

Older baths often have several problems at once: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.

Common reasons people in Hemyock contact us include:

  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • Stains that will not shift

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Aftercare advice

Choosing a repair company

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

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

Materials we work on in Hemyock

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

What affects the price in Hemyock

Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Hemyock. The price depends on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit

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. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • One picture of the entire bath

For a price in Hemyock, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Repair dripping taps early

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a full day, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  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. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
