Trusted bath re-enamelling in Henwick

Repair or replace in Henwick?

Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. 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 jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why us?

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Work done at your home or business

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Henwick

We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. If you are dealing with worn patches where water runs and sits and a coating lifting around the plughole, we can help.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What we’re called out for in Henwick

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • An old resurfacing that is failing
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits

Questions to ask before booking

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How the colour is matched
  • How soon you can use it again

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

What a repair can’t fix

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • A bath split right through the body

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

Materials we repair

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

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes the best part of a day. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  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 next day.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly

Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

Common questions in Henwick

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

How long is the bath unusable?

Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.

Is there a smell?

Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.

Do you cover Henwick?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Henwick and the rest of Worcestershire. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
