How we handle bath re-enamelling in Hendrabridge

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Whether it’s worn patches where water runs and sits and chips and rust in more than one place, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a full day, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.

The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.

Advice

Restoring a cast iron roll-top bath

Common questions in Hendrabridge

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

How long does re-enamelling last?

Care for it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.

Do you need to take the bath out?

No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.

How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Hendrabridge?

Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

How long is the bath unusable?

Usually one day, with the bath ready the day after. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What affects the price in Hendrabridge

Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

Whether we combine several jobs
How much damage there is
Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
The material

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

One sharp close-up of the damage
The material, if you know it
A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Any earlier repairs or coatings

If you are in Hendrabridge and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

When to call us in Hendrabridge

Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths dull the surface, typically first under the taps and around the waste.

Common reasons people in Hendrabridge contact us are:

An old resurfacing that’s failing
Chips and rust in more than one place
An outdated colour you’d like to change
A bath that stays dull however much you clean it

Questions to ask before you book

How to compare quotes

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hendrabridge

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

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
Avoid suction-cup mats
Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
Do not leave a chip unrepaired

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

Should I try a DIY kit 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.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Repairing versus replacing in Hendrabridge

Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
