Bath re-enamelling in Hevingham without replacing anything

Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. Our repair technicians work on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and cast iron baths, and common reasons people contact us are lots of chips and rust spots and a bath in a colour that no longer suits.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a full day. The room is left tidy.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Related advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

What a repair can’t fix

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

  • A bath that is rusted through
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why book with us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • A fixed quote before booking

Take a look at our prices page and bath cost comparison.

What affects the price in Hevingham

Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

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

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from photos

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

What we’re called out for in Hevingham

Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring

Before you book anyone

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What preparation is included
  • When it can be used again

How to compare quotes

Common questions in Hevingham

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

How long does re-enamelling take?

Typically a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.

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

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off 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.
